Deftones frontman Chino Moreno talked with Draftmag.com about the band’s new beer, Phantom Bride IPA, which was brewed in partnership with Belching Beaver Brewery. In addition to hinting that there might be more beers in the future and discussing his own favorites, he explained why he decided to team up and put out a band-themed beer:
“I was jealous of other bands putting out beers, loving beer as much as I do. So I pitched the idea of doing a collaboration with a few different breweries, and Belching Beaver was the first one to come back and really be engaged. They didn’t want to just slap the band’s name on the bottle; they wanted to know flavor profiles we were into. They actually sent me a bunch of samples of different batches they were testing before going in and making the final decision on the beer, so I felt like I was part of the process.”
