Idea for a Heretic Brewing Collaboration
« on: December 08, 2010, 12:33:27 pm »
I was thinking today since Jamil has started a brewing company, it would be awesome if he, Gordon, Formanek, and Curt Hausam all collaborated on a beer.  Call it NINKASI - think about, who would be dumb enough to NOT buy a beer that was developed by 4 guys with 9 Championship Medals!  I think it's all there credibility, marketability, a cool factor.... sounds like a winner.

Gordon, I know you'll read this, are you in?  :D

I think Ninkasi Brewing in Eugene, OR would have some issue with this.

Perhaps a new name is in order, but I still like the idea!   ;D

I wouldn't mind, but that's a lot of cooks stirring the pot...  Most commercial collaborations involve two breweries/brewers.

Come on Gordon, I've heard how these collaborations work... the guy who owns the place makes the beer and the rest of you sit around, bust his chops, and drink!
