Metallica have partnered with Blood Brothers Brewing for the launch of a new limited edition pale ale. Adapting its name from Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame-inducted thrash metal band’s 1996 single “Until It Sleeps“, this new ale has been dubbed ‘Until It Sips‘. A portion of the proceeds from each can sold will go towards Metallica‘s charity organization, All Within My Hands charity. A press release for the brew offered the following details regarding it:
‘Introducing…
UNTIL IT SIPS
w/ Metallica
Pale Ale • 5.5% ABVIn concert with the reissue of the super deluxe boxset of Load, we have teamed up with metal superstars Metallica to forge a beer befitting of this audio payload!
Dry hopped with Citra, Simcoe, and Cascade, Until It Sips is a full-flavoured, easy-drinking pale that boasts a vast bouquet of tropical fruit and citrus aromas, all while utilizing choice hops properties to keep bitterness low. The resulting palate accentuates the juicy qualities of this soft and medium-dry ale for a perfect union of flavour and aroma.
We have brewed the Cure for The Thorn Within: crack a pale and let it sip!’
You can get your hands on it over at bloodbrothersbrewing.com. The aforementioned super deluxe box set edition of Metallica‘s “Load” arrived earlier this month, with select configurations hosting hundreds of bonus tracks from the album’s creation and touring cycle.
