Winter Is Coming

We’ve Tasted Ommegang’s Game of Thrones Beer!

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:21 pm, March 11th, 2013

In the Game of Thrones, you either drink…or you drink. There really is no alternative in the world of George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire. Fine by me, which is why I was excited to hear HBO was teaming with Brewery Ommegang to create a line of Game of Thrones-inspired beer. And even more excited when they sent me a sample of their first edition, Iron Throne Blonde Ale, to try. Let me just say, I drink beer but I’m no connoisseur, so please forgive me if I don’t get into specifics.

Drink in Style With Flasks from Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings, Doctor Who, and More

Not that you have to drink alcohol, necessarily. I can see myself sipping some Black Cherry Kool-Aid from the White Tree of Gondor flask as I read fanfic on the subway. Like a boss.

Though regarding Game of Thrones I’d recommend alcohol if you’re reading book three, A Storm of Swords, for the first time. Just a heads up. Check out the selection after the jump.

Today In Ridiculous Drinking: Velociraptor vs. Shark Whisky

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:22 pm, January 18th, 2013

I’m not a whiskey drinker but if I were, this is the kind I would drink. Says Ben of MasterOfMalt.com of the creation, “Now, for [distillery] Aultmore, I searched high and low, asked all and sundry for interesting stories, facts or legends surrounding the distillery and turned up precisely nothing. So you’ve got this. A Velociraptor fighting a shark.” Apparently the design is part of a series of limited edition whiskies with comic book style label art. As for the artist he said, “She’s a comic book artist based in Glasgow.” If anyone knows her name, let us know, she deserves a high-five. Edit: Success! The artist is Emily Chappell. Her work can be found here.
