Printer's Ale offered up a delicious New England IPA that is named after Ben Affleck although not in the most flattering way. Interestingly dubbed 'Ben Affleck Has A Big, Fat, Stupid Mouth,' this particular beer makes use of a trio of hops of the Galaxy, Citro and Newzill varieties.
The label of this particular New England IPA appears to state that the inspiration for the branding has something to do with Affleck's appearance as 'Batman,' with the brew offered to one and all in Atlanta and nearby regions.
Although it remains somewhat unclear how the Hollywood superstar of 'Good Will Hunting, 'Argo' and 'Gone Baby Gone' fame feels about this particular brew, what is eminently clear is that this is a beer that is a delicious sipper that is just as good as a single-serve sampler as it is as a lazily sessionable option.
