Beer Name: Ganymede
Style: Hoppy Amber
ABV: 6.4%
Color: A deep, resonating caramel
Cheese Pairing: Comté
Food Pairing: Just, like, the biggest meatball sub.
Music Pairing (Jimbo's Choice): "Lara's Wedding Day" by the Red Elvises
Music Pairing (Jared's Choice): "Send Help" by Big Business
Best Occasion to Drink: Moments of quiet contemplation.
Brewers' Notes: This here's one of two beers we brewed up to celebrate the nuptials of Tricia and Eric (the other is Callisto, and if you blend the two you get a secret third beer)! And at some point when we were figurin' out what they'd be serving at their festivities, somebody (we forget who, like all meetings around here, there may have been some drinking during this meeting) suggested a moderately-burly yet bone-dry caramel-forward amber with some earthy/grassy hops and a (somewhat unexpected) whack o' banana (graciously provided by some Jarrylo hops) and that's exactly what we've got here! You may not expect it to taste the way it does based on looks alone, but dang if we didn't empty our glasses right quick and in a hurry!
