Brewers' Notes: We may not be able to have a "real birthday party" this year, but that don't mean we ain't gonna celebrate, and celebrations need music! This here dry and delicious lil' stout was brewed to pair with the sonic punishment dished out by Blood Built Empire and it's sure to sustain you whether you're full-on rockin' out or just softly bobbing your head as you listen on that one crappy speaker in your kitchen because you never bothered getting a home stereo.

Music Pairing (Jimbo's Choice): "Battering Ram" by Blood Built Empire
Music Pairing (Jared's Choice): "City Snakes" by Blood Built Empire
Best Occasion to Drink: During Blood Built Empire's set at our birthday party!
Brewers' Notes: It's our birthday and we'll brew a bunch of concept beers if we want to, dagnabbit! This time around, we're brewin' up some brews to drink with the sonic punishment* delivered by Blood Built Empire so we came up with a beer that'll work well getting warmed by your hand as you stand off in the corner nodding your head more-or-less with the beat (if that's your style), while still providing the energy you'll need to flail around or whatever (if that's more your speed).
