Everything on Tap proposes names of beers too clever to pass up: Game of Thrones edition

Welcome back to the crafty realm of beer naming, where last time we navigated the stormy seas of beer naming and branding. This time, we’re diving into the rich and tumultuous world of Westeros, where the stakes are high and the names are as mighty as the characters they honor. Let’s gather again at the council table, ready to crown our next line of victorious brews.

I have learned that in a crowded marketplace, it takes not only skill but also creativity to stand out. Our previous experience has taught us that we need to be like a 'Song of Ice and Fire' to make an impact. Drawing inspiration from the lands of Westeros and Essos, Everything on Tap has created a list of names that will have a strong influence on the taproom, much like a Valyrian steel blade. These names are not just labels; they are symbols under which beer lovers will unite.

As we get ready to reveal this majestic lineup, keep in mind that naming a beer is a challenging and rewarding art. It involves capturing the essence of each brew in a title that demands attention and respect, much like the nobility of the Seven Kingdoms. So raise your glasses and prepare your senses, because here are the beer names destined to reign over taste buds and tap lists everywhere.

8 GoT beer names too good not to brew

The "Joffrey Lannister: this wine tastes like wit" - Witbier

Crafted with cunning that rivals a plot in King’s Landing, ‘The Joffrey Lannister: This wine tastes like wit’ Witbier infuses traditional Belgian notes with a venomous twist. Each sip offers a complex blend of spices and a hint of bitter betrayal, reminiscent of the young king’s last, fateful toast. It’s a beer that’s as sharp and unexpected as the poison that crowned his end (served without the poison).

The "All helles broke loose at the Red Wedding, huh?" - Helles

This Helles lager is crisp and startling, much like the notorious Red Wedding. It has a clean, bright finish that cuts through the palate sharply, similar to Valyrian steel through unsuspecting guests. The brew starts off smooth and inviting, like a wedding feast, but leaves you reeling from its unexpectedly bold finish.

The "That Tyrion Lannister is a hefeweizen-heimer" - Hefewizen

This Hefeweizen is as witty and complex as Tyrion Lannister himself, with layers of flavor that reveal themselves in clever, unexpected ways. Its rich, yeasty body is matched by a sharp citrus twist, mimicking Tyrion’s sharp intellect and surprising depth. It’s a brew that proves powerful things come in small packages, perfect for toasting to the wizenheimer-est of the Lannisters.

The "Daenerys Targaryen: I think I'm cool, I ride on dragon-bock" - Bock

This Bock embodies the boldness and fiery spirit of Daenerys Targaryen. It has a robust and malty backbone that supports a smoky hint of dragon’s breath. The deep, rich flavors are as commanding as a dragon’s flight over battlefields, offering a strong, warm finish fit for the Mother of Dragons. Embrace the heat and let this brew transport you to the skies of Westeros.
