Inspired by Gustav Holst’s The Planets, Bell’s Brewery brings us The Planet Series of Beers.
Using a planet to inspire each style of beer, the series ranges from a blonde ale to a black double IPA. But, couldn’t they have at least created a light beer for Pluto? And, do we really need to know what Uranus tastes like?
“Mars, The Bringer of War” – Double IPA
“Venus, The Bringer of Peace” – A Blonde Ale brewed with honey, apricot, vanilla and cardamom
“Mercury, The Winged Messenger” – A Belgian Single
“Jupiter, The Bringer of Jollity” – A malt forward Brown Ale
“Saturn, The Bringer of Old Age” – A Bourbon Barrel-aged Barleywine
“Uranus, The Magician” – Black Double IPA
“Neptune, The Mystic” – A beer inspired by Dr. Bell’s Medicinal Stout, one of Larry Bell’s homebrews that also helped inspire Eccentric Ale
