They’ll start with something boring: Hit the Lites, Lager Messiah.
Then they’ll jump on the IPA bandwaggon: Master of Hop Pellets, Hoppier than Thou.
They’ll need an impy too: The Strongest Stout
But they’ll not be able to resist the sour trend: Battery Acid
There may be some duff batches on the way: The Unfermented, The Golden that Failed

I’m glad to see that the argument "has Metallica sold out?" has finally been settled conclusively, and beyond any possible reprieve.

Metallica are to metal as Budweiser is to beer...

so seems about right to me. Trouble is every time I go for a piss Lars will want me arrested for illegally copying his beer...

Heh.

I still do like the EARLY stuff though, every now and again. But I’m also not a rivethead, so consider the source...

to be fair, I should’ve qualified that as ’post Black Album Metallica’

St Anger may actually be more insipid than Bud...

It’s normal Budweiser with Metallica on the can, right?



I think it’s fitting that a band now devoid of any creativity, excitement or originality chooses to re-badge a bland, boring beer rather than devise their own.

Similar to how a tired, worn-out band like Iron Maidon teamed up with a tired, out-of-touch real ale brewer like Robinsons for their boring Trooper ale.

And bands that still excite, such as Clutch, Mastodon & Slayer, are teaming up with decent breweries for interesting beers such as a complex dark sour, passionfruit saison & a full-bodied red ale.

Fight Fire with Fire- new #1 strongest beer in the world. Brewed entirely out of Metallica members tears after finding out how much money they lose via Napster.

The Cliff years are some of the best music ever recorded. Dig that t-shirt of Cliff staring at you and saying "It should have been Lars..."

To quote the Facebook meme (or whatever):

This beer is aged on unsold copies of Reload.

So they’re putting beer in their tears and canning it, seems like they could make more than 91,000.
