        Was there also a competition for the most ridiculously named beer?

          Went into a Family Fare (chain grocer) yesterday to find they had 4pks of Backwoods Bastard for $14. So I bought their last 3

            If there was, my vote would go to anything from Clown Shoes.  Ridiculous names is kinda their thing.  At least they don't do stupid pun names. I hate that.

              Clown Shoes - bloody awful names, hideous artwork, some good beers though…

              Stupid pun names: give me some examples... Can't come up with any...

                Now that I look back on it those were some pretty ridiculous names.
                Clown Shoes usually takes the cake with the most ridiculous names and art, pretty good beer though.
                The BA Ten Fidy was delicious as was the 2016 Pirate Noire.
                Feeling it fully this morning though…

                    Weiss Versa, Dark de Triomphe, Tart Of Darkness, Peter Cotton Ale (now with more hops!), Hoppy Endings, Smooth Hoperator, Pure Hoppiness, Hoptimus Prime, Hop, Drop, And Roll, Audrey Hopburn, basically anything with "hop" somewhere in it, For Those About To Bock, Pepperation H, Mash Of The Titans, Haulin' Oats, Mother In Lager, Yule Shoot Your Eye Out; should I go on, or is that enough to give you an idea?

                    I think this is an American thing.  It seems no other nationality treats beer like it needs a joke name to get people to buy it.

                    And just to be clear, I'll still drink something with a ridiculous name, as long as it's good.  Tart Of Darkness is one of my absolute favorite beers of all time…

                      Thanks for those, FTX… Weiss Versa is a pretty great name though  🙂

                      Not an American thing, we have the Scandinavians who love puns as well... It's just that I'm (still) completely blanking... If I can think of some names, I'll post 'm...

                        Always down for a good pun.

                        Sparked by all the stouts posted lately I picked up a growler of Central Waters Space Ghost, 12% with a kick from ghost peppers also. Very enjoyable. Also grabbed a bottle of Lagunitas Imperial Stout.

                          That's local- Karbach Brewing.  I'll add a couple of cans to your care package, so you can see if you like the beer as much as the name.

                                    There's also #Blackmaltsmatter and To be Alenounced from Flying Couch. Working almost exclusively with danish breweries, I can confirm that they do indeed love naming their beer!
