On the night of January 25th 2008, the great minds of Brad Tarver and Matt Wann sat down for a night of good libations and drunken babble. What was to come of this night, no one could have imagined. And thus The Sierra Dog was born.
That burp tasted like vomit.
I know what you’re thinking. What is a Sierra Dog? Well guess what fuckers? I’ll tell you. A Sierra Dog is a combo of two beers. A mixture of 1/2 SNPA (Sierra Nevada Pale Ale) and 1/2 Abita Turbo Dog. (T.B.D.A) Both great beers alone, but as one? I am thinking the Great Wall of China of beers. This is a day that will live along side other great days of invention. The Wheel, the refrigerated rail car, assembly line and mass production, central air and heat, indoor plumbing, tampons (for the ladies), fire, original alcohol, bourbon, a pipe, birth control. Feel free to comment about other great inventions.


Matt was told to try this combo of taste sensation. We think it was someone at the Mellow Mushroom in Floowood, MS.
And now I turn it over to the beer master Sir Brad to tell you about Sierra Dog:
The beer we mixed tonight is a great mixture of two great beers. We basically bought a six-pack of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale and a six-pack of Abita Turbo Dog; then we would take one of each beer and pour two beers, a 1/2 and 1/2 mixture of the two beers. The combination is a wonderful marriage. Notes about the mixture:
- the beautiful red dawn color
- the chocolaty goodness
- the high alcohol content (the buzz!)
- the smooth finish
