I recently read a piece by John Foyston in The Oregonian relating how five bottles of an ultra-rare beer named Hair of the Dog Dave sold separately at auction for a combined $2838.30. Had there been a sixth, Foyston points out, it would have amounted to a $3,500 sixer.
After cringing a bit, I had to laugh. If it had been a wine, the name on the bottle would have been something pompous sounding like Coche-Dury Corton-Charlemagne. However, these bidders shelled out up to $719 per 375ml for a tipple named Dave. You have to love the working-class ethic of the craft beer community.
Thinking about the humble name given to such a pricey beer led me to consider how many odd names exist in the craft beer world. I’d like to offer my take on the 10 coolest beer names:
Happy Bday SIS!!!! I will see everyone at the Shack!

Kick back this weekend with an ice-cold glass of Wailua Wheat Beer ($8/six-pack) from the Kona Brewing Co. This limited-release ale is a perfect summer beer, with a bright, citrusy flavor courtesy of the tropical passion fruit brewed into each batch. Like its Maui waterfall namesake, Wailua Wheat is a cascade of refreshment on a hot day. Serve with a lemon or lime wedge for an extra kick.

In preparation for the beer tasting on Sunday, I had my own on Friday. The SASS is a 12 pack with 6 varieties. You do the math.
Boston Lager, Boston Ale, Summer Ale, Cherry Wheat, Hefeweizen, and Pale Ale. I enjoyed them all except the Cherry Wheat. The other father brought a 6sixer of Sam Adams Brown Ale. Which I really liked. YUM!!! We even mixed 2 of them. But I can’t remember
which beers they were. It was at the end of the evening.
