I bet that it would taste awful. Is there a movie/tv series based food/drink product that actually tastes good or better than other substitutes?

wut, they actually exist?

Authentic Soylent Green is superior to the run of the mill cannibalism products.

You get your star anise and licorice out of my beer, save it for your fancy weird liquors!

With a stout, I find it challenging for a competent brewery to upset my tastebuds - I'm pretty sure they found the fool-proof way to do so.

1. Only 7% alcohol?

2. I'm not ingesting anything branded Game of Thrones for fear of getting poisoned.

Would not drink at Wedding.

Brewery Ommegang is a great brewery. I've yet to have a bad beer from them, and absolutely love 3 philosophers at 9.8% ABV.

I had their first GoT beer, the Iron Throne. It was a belgian blonde ale that was pretty good. It got an 85 rating on BeerAdvocate.

Looking forward to Take the Black as I prefer stouts. In total, they'll have 6 GoT brews. One released every 6 months or so. All limited releases.

Ommegang is really good. This is going to be a solid craft beer, that just happens to be tied in with Game of Thrones.

Ommegang is indeed a good brewery and I'd expect the beer to be good.

Can't stand 3 Philosophers though. Yuck. I think it's the cherry. I'd rather drink Bud.

Agreed. I have had about 8 or 9 of their beers, all are excellent.

Have you tried the Ommegang Hennepin? It's weaker, only around 7 or 8% abv, but it's ohh so delicious!

Anyhow, I haven't seen Game of Thrones, I will eventually watch when it's on netflix, or hulu, or prime after they cancel the series.


There are already stouts with Anise in them. Best known example is from Stone probably.

That said, I love beer, but when I want Anise, I'll smoke an Avanti or drink some Jager.

Then you'll never watch it. It's an HBO series, and HBOGo is looking to compete with Netflix and the like.

I see what you did there.

OK. Then I won't watch it.

Well, you should.

 

[Atomic Playboy]

I'll try it, but I don't know how I feel about a licorice stout. I like a stout that punches me in the face with chocolate and coffee.

 

[alkemyst]

Star Anise and Licorice?

The beer for the Eunich?
