Raging Bitch!

After Germany ceased exporting my favorite beer (Dinkel Acker pilsner), it was hard times. I tottered on the edge of becoming a white wine drinker.

But I recently discovered a new beer that is not quite as good but very satisfying in its own way. It is from Flying Dog – a Frederick, MD brewery – and it is called Raging Bitch. It is a Belgian IPA – a type of beer that previously did not ring my bell.

The one drawback to Raging Bitch is the alcohol content – 8.3%. But I have tried to be magnanimous and not let that prejudice me against it.

Here’s a page with the details on Raging Bitch’s hops, etc.

    When Ralph Steadman does the artwork for the label, it says something about a product. It’s not surprising that a literary type would be instantly attracted to this intoxicant. He’s like a bat out of hell…

    I thought the style of design seemed familiar – though I would not have guessed or recognized Steadman’s name.

    That’s a great drawing at your link.
