Beer that gets you Lei’d
For our novelty beer category at this year’s Dixie Cup, we present Beer that gets you Lei’d.
You know the one. The one that’s deceptively strong, but is oh so smooth. We have pet names for it: “Inhibition Relaxer,” “Liquid Underwear Remover,” “Viagra Venom.” It opens with a hiss and ends in ecstasy.
This beer should have strength — a minimum original gravity of 1.080. It may have adjuncts, which must be specified on the entry form. The base style isn’t important, but panache and effect is. It should glide over the palate like lies off a politician’s tongue. Alcohol should not be evident, but should be abundant.
Is this beer brewed to seduce? Decidedly.
Is this beer drinkable? Absolutely.
Is this beer sexist? Not anymore.
Is this beer going to be judged by a panel of Hawaiians? Hell no. But those who do shouldn’t make plans after the tasting, unless it’s with that special someone.
As usual, you must include the base style of the beer as well as any adjunts used in the brew. This category does not count towards personal or club points and will not be considered for Best-of-Show (therefore only 2 bottles are needed). The winners of this category will be awarded a medallion and serious bragging rights.
Note: This category is open to beers only. Meads, ciders, and other non-beer alcoholic beverages will be disqualified.
