Welcome to…spring? Technically? It’s snowing in my neck of the woods today and I’ve got my curling league later tonight but hey -- Oberon Day is just a few days from now, which says “springtime” loudly enough for me.
The New Illinois Beer Label of the Week:
It’s been a minute since we’ve seen a new Noon Whistle label come into the world, and this one almost certainly has a cool story behind it. See that language below the Government Warning on the left?
That’s Hungarian, which makes sense since Horizont Brewing is based in Budapest. Gonna have to ask about how this one came into being — and if you want to pick some up, it’s out now.
This is the only label you’ll see today if you’re a free subscriber, but our Premium Subscribers can scroll on to see:
The last of the eclipse beers, maybe?
A slick new look for an existing FFF whiskey
Beverages for Ballbuster Polly and Frisch’s Big Boy
Another paloma-inspired beer that I manifested into existence
90’s rock label, emo and riot-grrrl references
Oh, and some very early news for Premium Subscribers about a beermaker I’ll be adding to the “Coming Soon” list — and where they might be working from. Join us:
