OT - Name my beer! (winner announcement)
So I'm an avid home brewer and I need the help of the MGoBlog community. I want you to help me name my next beer. Your post should include 1)what kind of beer it should be 2) what to name it. The winner will receive a free case of it when it's done. (provided you are 21 years of age).
(EDIT) Winner is Zoltanrules with Ale to the Victors. e-mail me your contact info. [email protected]
How about a good Michigan Wheat beer, then you can call it MGoBeer.
Make whatever kind you want, but the name has to be MGoBeer.
MMMMM. Go Beer!
I've always wanted to make one called "Ale Davis" and have it be aged to the point where it is virtually spoiled, yet I would enjoy drinking an old, spoiled beer that is called "Ale Davis" because of the irony. Hyuck hyuck.
I dabbled in home-brewing a couple years ago and wanted to make a cherry porter, so I could name it "Terry Cherry Porter", in reference to the former player & then-Pistons assistant coach. I suppose you could also go with "Jerry Cherry Porter" after the perennially underachieving NFL wideout.
Yeah those are both pretty stupid but whatever.
I'd make a nice summer lager and call it "The Impossible Dream".
I'm a fan of an 18% wheat beer or barley wine. Then you can call it OMG Shirtless!
I think you should do a 1) porter.
and name it 2) The MgoBrew Dark
MgoBrew is more of a brand name than a specific type. A more creative name for a porter would be "The Cop Puncher"
(in Red Stripe shaped bottles)
Mike Hart's Three Star Shorter Porter.
"You never guessed it would be this good."
Make a pale ale and call it Hail Ale.
I like this one..no decision yet though.
I like the Hail Ale, but an India Hail Ale would be even better. Or a wheat beer and call it Maize and Brew.
Add corn to your starch and call it "Maize and Brew".
Make it a Pale Ale that knocks you on your ass and call it "Barwis Brew."
Or Dolphin Puncher.
A michigan made ale that has a nice maize color. Damned I'm thirsty now!
If that is an orginal idea, it's a winner . . . trademark it!
+10 if I could.
will be shitfaced.
I wish I could +1000 this.
This is the new leader!
Speechless....
I could as well give it to the entire thread.The champions of the 'Fest.
If you are interested in making a flavored one, you could make a dark ale with a hint of grape flavor (nothing strong) and you could use a very high original gravity to yield a high amount of alcohol - like 8-9% abv and then call it "Grapes of Wrath." I dunno why I've just always thought that was a great idea but never worked up the courage to try it.
Flavor Corners....whatever type you prefer to make it. I'd go with a hefeweizen type but it's your choice....Flavor Corners knows no bounds when it comes to variety.
but call it a Uferweizen instead.
i think this might be my first ever double post.
Sounds like a Double Bock is in order!
Call it Chips beer
"A home brew that overachieves, leaving Spartans confused and UM beer snobs pleased"
Wheat beer. Name it something like "Wolverine Wheat."
That way, no matter how many I had, I was ALWAYS drinking responsibly.
Hawkeye Beer - Homemade satisfaction that yearns to be better but still pales in comparison to your favorite
Go name your own damn beer.
or...
Grouchy Old Man Lager.
get two different bottle sizes (one short, one tall), make one sweeter and the other a bit more bitter.
"Down in Front"
"Stand Up and Cheer"
Weapon of Choice - large IPA or Belgian Tripel
The Lloyd - full-flavored Red Rye (I don't know why, but when I think Lloyd I think rye - rye beer, rye whiskey, even rye bread).
Chris Perry Carry - a smooth lager that finishes strong. A beer that you could call on an excessive number of times during the Michigan State game to carry you through.
Negger Pils.
Another option?
Develops over time into a hearty, strong taste that reflects the work put into it
Urinal Trough Lager.
Berenson - Chilled, this beer makes a strong finish that shows the drinker a season of effort with a lot of heart
Geaux really wants that free case.
if it weren't for my horse...
I have a hard time arguing with MGoBeer/Brew. Something with a a hoppy bitter taste like Hopslam. Maybe call it "Slot Ninja".
"You'd better finish that - son"
A wheat beer made from Michigan wheat grown under a maize sun in a blue sky.If you made wine you could continue the pattern and call it Rich Rod-Riesling
There is also a Bo-Sauvignon
crowd of fans - I guess I would serve a GoBlue Cheese Spreadformation on Carr's Crackers.
gonna get my vino on when we beat UConn.
Name for a weakass batch of bitter "near-beer", to be used exclusively when your brewing experiments go awry.
Henneweissen?
Too cute?
