Monty Python's Holy "Ale" (putting the Pub back in Free RePUBlic)
beer case at Whole Foods ^ | now | vanity

Posted on 04/01/2004 12:39:53 AM PST by weegee

Just thought I'd voice in that today I was perusing the adult beverages at a local grocery and I ran across Monty Python's Holy Grail Ale (Tempered Over Burning Witches).

This is official MP product (penguin not included).

Another fine addition to the Black Sheep Brewery range of premium bottled ales, our Holy Grail Bitter was specially commissioned to commemorate the 30th anniversary of Monty Python.

It has a distinctive taste with plenty of fruity hops, and is full flavoured with a dry and refreshing bitterness.

ABV 4.7%
500ml bottle

I actually saw some of this beer at Harry's Farmer's Market in Marietta last fall; I was on task (and light on funds) at the time, and didn't get any -- I'll have to get over there soon and get me some!

Just damn.

If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

Hi Jacqui,

I've been wondering how things went with you lately.
Did you experience significant "shrinkage?"

This is great stuff! Get it regularly at Earth Fare in Charleston and sometimes the local place carries it.

Good idea, O Lord!

OF COURSE IT IS!

But what do the Bruces, the Australian philosophers, think about it?

I hope it's not like American beer, which the Bruces feel is much like making love in a canoe...

Ask them after several (GR)ails and they shall epound the meaning of Life, the Universe, and Everything.
No doubt.
