A very classy beer for the whole family

Brooklyn Monster Ale
This ale was born in 2008.

The silver label and 1 pt font is unreadable.

Website stuff: Brooklyn Monster Ale is a classic barley wine, a style of ale originally brewed by the butlers to English and American aristocracy.

A family goes to a talent agent. He says: What's your act?

The father says: First we drink a lot of beer, wine and whiskey. Then we take the empty bottles and shove them into my wife's....@&!*... then my son drinks the bong leftovers out of my daughter's @!*#&@... as it drips into my own mouth. ... of course, I'm dressed up as the pope. Sometimes, there is a donkey involved, we need it to @*@)!..but only for the matinees. For the late shows, we work blue. After all that's done, we blog about it.

The talent agent says: That sounds classy, what's your act called?

The Aristocrats!

It is brewed from three batches of heirloom British malt and spiced aromatic American, Willamette, Cascade, and Fuggle hops.

After four months of aging, it has a magnificent burnished copper color, an aroma of redolent (redolent: having a strong pleasant odor) sherry, citrusy hops and fruit, a soft, warming, complex palate, a spiritous finish, and a strength of 10.8%.

It is vivacious when young, but will age gracefully for many years, becoming more complex over time.

Cost: Approx 12.99 a six pack.
Grade: B
Cost Adjusted Grade: B+

And now the unedited version of the Aristocrats! Send all young children out of the room.

A family goes to a talent agent. He says: What's your act?

The father says: First we drink a lot of beer, wine and whiskey. Then we take the empty bottles and shove them into my wife's suitcase. Then we sitdown for a picnic. We are an odd famliy and we like to give inanimate objects names. We call our thermos "bong". We eat our picnic and then my son drinks the bong leftovers out of my daughter's cup. I grab the last bottle of wine, tip it up and smile as it drips into my own mouth. It's halloween, so of course, I'm dressed up as the pope. Sometimes, there is a donkey involved, we need it to carry all of the empty bottles. But only for the matinees. For the late shows, we work blue. After all that's done, we blog about it.
