'Swamp Thing IPA' is a beer from Bayou Teche Brewing that takes inspiration from the legendary supernatural creatures that are said to dwell in the bayous and swamps of
South Louisiana.
The legend of the Swamp Thing is the focus of the beer brew, which is illustrated with all-green branding that depicts the creature as a terrifying, mutated hybrid of a hop plant and a Venus flytrap.
In terms of how the branding matches the flavors of the beer itself, Bayou Teche Brewing uses a blend of hops that are fermented with an ale yeast. As Bayou Teche Brewing comically describes, the flowers of the Swamp Thing, although "The last man sent to harvest these potent blossoms hasn’t been seen since."
