| Bare Bottom Madness Pale Ale Door County Brewing Company Black River Falls, WI & Bailey's Harbor, WI Label offerings: 5.2% ALC. BY VOL. Door County Brewing Company IT IS BEER! A Grand Discovery of Liquid Luxury My input: I contacted the brewery with my question of why a sheep was on this beer label. This is the response I promptly received:In the early 1900s there was a sheep farmer in the town of Sevastopol named Mr. Templeton. New to his profession, he often needed the townspeople’s guidance on herding his flock. One particular occasion, searching for salt to lure the sheep in, the town stumbled upon what they thought to be three barrels of salt. Templeton pried the barrels open, which to everyone’s surprise, was a liquid. He smelled it. It smelled like beer. He tasted it. It tasted like beer. He concluded, “it is beer!” Thrilled at their grand discovery of liquid luxury, Sevastopol celebrated with haste, forgot the sheep and reached the bottom of the barrels quite quickly. With barrels dry and sheep amuck the town danced themselves into and unforgettable bare bottom madness. A madness that celebrates the unexpected, our pale ale is brewed with notes of grapefruit, citrus, pine and a touch of caramel malt for sweetness. Bare Bottom Madness rejoices in the flavors of Door County you’re so happy to find, you can’t bare the thought of the bottom." Gotta love that story! |
