Mamma Mia! Pizza Beer
(???/20)
Brian, Adam and KFAZ on Dec 30.08

I was celebrating my internship offer by picking out a couple new brews and this happened to catch my eye…Ale brewed with oregano, basil, tomato and garlic… how could i say no? I ended up getting to drunk that evening and not being capable of writting a review at the time. so now I’m in Adams basement ready to tackle this odd little beast.

Brewery Hometown: Glendale, WI

Appearance: First off the bottle says :Beer so good… It deserves a wine glass!” with a picture of a wine glass and the happy couple who look very Italian by wearing chef’s hats. When poured into the glass it is clearly an unfiltered brew, We’re pretty sure there’s garlic and oregano bits floating in here… It’s like a dark yellow? but still very orangie… Adams glass was passed around to Kay and Scott and kinda lost its head after a few sips. Mine however still retains a little lacing around the top. (KFaz: It looks like DFaz was drinking a 312 and backwashed his pizza into it?!)

Aroma: A Its definitely pizza… Adam claims the basil is standing out. KFaz just showed up, he says the garlic smell is standing out to him as well.  It just smells like cold pizza.

Taste: The label is not lying when it says that its brewed with all those ingredients, oregano, basil, tomato and garlic are all strong enough to know they are there. KFaz doesn’t seem to think it tastes like beer really, theres no hoppy or bitter taste. Adam seems to agree with that notion. Kev found extra chunks at the bottom of the bottle and poured them into Adams, he said it makes it taste extra pizza-esk (Is the secret in the chunks?) This beer reminds me of Dan’s magic bullet extravaganza, but actually good. like someone put pizza and a light beer in the bullet.

Alcohol: 4.6%

Drink one or all?: 1 would probably do it for you

Cost: $2/16oz portion

Overall: This beer we don’t even want to rate on our scale of beers. It really isn’t even a beer in our view. It is good and would go very well along side a GIANT pizza pie but it just wouldn’t be considered beer by us. Give it a try for shits and giggles but don’t expect your new favorite brew.
