Mandalorian Beer!


Rogue Nine

Recommended Posts

A New York brewery has created a beer called Ne'tra Gal, and apparently that's Mandalorian for something, I dunno. Have a look:

A hoppy black ale, inspired by those served at the Oyu’baat cantina on Mandalore. Ne’tra gal is dry hopped with crystal hops, and has the qualities of an ipa with the body of a porter. Full mouthfeel with moderate effervescence.

This is the first time I've heard of this, so I thought I'd share the news.

I wonder how long it takes the Lucas Legion of Lawyers® to kill this one....

Haven't heard any official licensing from LucasArts, but it seems like Southern Tier must have something, they're using the Mandalorian symbol and all...

 

Then again, LucasArts did end up axing this particular brew:

^^^ Home picture for envy's sake?

 

@ topic: Holy $%^*. This *is* for reals. I'm not much a drinker but this is damn special enough I'm-a get me some of this. Some to drink and some to keep as collectible.

 

Now if only womprats were real. I could have a pack of intelligent wolf sized humanoid rodents to train as my loyal, lethal, kung fu ninja clique.

Seems unusual that they made a porter. Are they popular in the States? They seem to fight a losing battle against India Pale Ale and lager here in the UK. Or they seem to to me, anyway...

 

@Niner: The brown head on that beer doesn't make it look terribly appetising. :xp:

Which beer are you talking about, the Ne'tra Gal or the Imperial Stout Trooper?

It makes it look delicious; I love me some imperial stouts.

just about every bar i've been in has people swilling down the American stuff which is mostly just lager (can't stand most of that stuff myself). from what i've seen, microbrews are what you drink when you are only going to have one or two 12 oz bottles (so you can still drive later) or just simply when you feel like being a connoisseur instead of your normal drunk self.

 

i'm always the designated driver, so i enjoy the microbrews quite often. haven't seen that one down here in the southeast yet, but i'll keep an eye out.

The Netting Gaul; but I suppose the stout, too...

It's actually called a Black IPA. It's kind of a weird cross between a stout and an India Pale Ale. Pretty hit or miss. I had the Ne'tra Gal last night and it was decidedly a miss, I'm sorry to report.

 

And on the whole, stouts and porters are enjoyed mostly by craft beer enthusiasts like myself (Imperial Stouts are actually my favorite styles of beer), but the general public mostly consumes the crappy Bud/Miller/Coors lagers.

Still it does sound kind of cool and makes me wonder if some creative soul, with the backing of Lord Lucas, will create some of the beverages we use in fanfics like juma juice or Corellian Ale. Big seller me thinks.

 

Yeah your right it would be a big seller and nice choice in names. I would probably try them thats for sure.
