Guest DantheMan Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I'm a homebrewer. Recently I've moved on from kit beers to creating my own craft beers and recipes. The beauty of that is I can name my creations whatever I want. Today I brewed 10 gallons of a nut brown ale, I'm calling it "Squatch Nut Brown". Has anyone had a squatch themed beer from a local micro brewery? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I can say I've tried Bigfoot Ale by Sierra Nevada and it wasn't my favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 The closest one to me is: http://bigmuddybrewing.com/2011/10/big-muddy-monster/ However, in Colorado, there is Great Divide Brewing Co. who have a whole series of Yeti beers: http://greatdivide.com/beers/#all And as mentioned above, Sierra Nevada's Bigfoot Barleywine is pretty common, but they also have a barrel aged version with a pretty cool label: http://beerpulse.com/2012/12/sierra-nevada-barrel-aged-bigfoot-barleywine-slated-for-late-january/ There are more out there, but these are the ones I've tried (except the barrel aged Serra Nevada, couldn't get my hands on one).

norseman Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 its not squatch themed but if anyone ever wanted to check out bossburg? www.northernales.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DWA Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I think all the squatchnames in NA culture may be one of the strongest pieces of evidence for sasquatch. Might not and shouldn't satisfy a scientist. But as Alley says: legends don't jump cultures very well. This one is broad-jumping all over the place.

Has anyone had a squatch themed beer from a local micro brewery? Hey, Dan. I too am a home brewer, just got grain and hops for two batches (12 gal) of ordinary bitter. After 3 weeks of bottle conditioning I just put part of a batch of pale ale in the fridge so it can absorb the CO2. The only bigfoot themed beer I've seen for sale was Sierra Nevada's Biggfoot Ale that NW 063 mentioned. I didn't like it either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DWA Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 what does that have to do with beer...man!? Um...squatch-themed beers...??? You, um, tell me. All I have to do with beer, generally, is drink it. Prosit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkGlasgow Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 That Sasquatch Brewery Moby **** Double IPA would need a bit of respect at over 10% ABV!! How big a deal is craft/micro brewing in the states? After reading this thread I've just ordered a home brew kit. Been going to do it for a while now but going to take the plunge.

Guest DWA Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Craft/micro is a huge deal in the States. There may be more small brewers now than there were at the very height of American small brewing - shortly before such as Anheuser-Busch took sole responsibility for downgrading American beer quality in favor of mass marketeering.

Guest Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) Microbrews are BIG here in Oregon. HUGE. Here - I can connect beer to sasquatch .... Don't drink and 'squatch! Edited March 18, 2013 by madison5716 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me be the first to say "welcome to the club"!! Madison, I would say there's no better way to squatch, then to have a cold one while doing it!

Guest DWA Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I don't believe I have ever read a report that went anything like "we spilled our brews all over the dash when this thing crossed the road." BEER IS NOT A HALLUCINOGEN! so that ain't it; it's just that seeing a sasquatch while quaffing a cold one has to be at least as good as seeing the winning TD for your team while doing same.
