The next beer in the Game of Thrones-inspired line currently being produced by Brewery Ommegang has been revealed. Just like the first two, the third is inspired by the hit HBO show. It’s called Fire and Blood Red Ale, and is inspired by House Targaryen…more specifically, Daenerys Targaryen and her dragons.
Instead of one special label, this beer will come with one of three possible labels, each featuring one of the three dragons, Drogon, Rhaegal, and Viserion.
You can find out more about the beer and see what the labels will look like below.
DESCRIPTION:
Fire and Blood Red Ale is brewed with pilsner, spelt, rye and other specialty malts. It’s hopped with Styrian Golding and German Tettnang hops and spiced with ancho chilies for additional complexity. The hue is deep, dark red with a persistent, creamy, off-white head. Aromas include ripe fruit, raisins, slight spice and malt, with a slight floral, spicy hop character. Taste includes fruit with sweet malt character that gives way to faint dryness. The sweet malt is balanced by spicy rye and hop characters with an underlying raisin and prune note. The finish offers balanced malt and spicy characters from hops and rye.
Fire and Blood Red Ale will be released sometime during the spring around the time that Game of Thrones is getting ready to begin season four.
