Breckenridge Brewery Created a Batman-Inspired Beer for Denver Comic Con
Megan Facciuolo — May 18, 2014 — Lifestyle
Denver Comic Con is fast approaching and fans of age better be prepared to sip a beer fit for a superhero. The annual exhibition teamed up with Denver brewery 'Breckenridge Brewery' to create a Batman-inspired beer, which is amazingly dubbed 'Brews Wayne.'
This will be the third year in a row that Denver Comic Con has created a superhero beer with Breckenridge Brewery. Last year it released a Batman-themed beer called the 'Caped Brewsader,' but the company felt that Batman would still be suitable for this year's beer too -- considering the recent unveiling of the Ben Affleck Batman.
However, this year's Batman beer does differ in taste; it's an amber ale with a “hearty malt base and lively hop character,” which represents “playboy by day and superhero by night.”
