IRON MAIDEN beer

I've just seen this one and I hope I'm not too late on the news. I'm curious because it seems more than putting the band's logo on an usual crap beer like Heineken. Or am I wrong?

I've read it was announced in March but it's now out.

Their twitter account is always talking about it. I'd buy it if I could find it locally but I'm not ordering a beer from England just because it's got an Iron Maiden theme....

25.50£ shipping for an eight bottle case is more than the cost of the case itself. You have a point.

Jeff Hanneman's vodka would be better.

I really wouldn't expect the beer to be worth the expense of shipping within the UK, never mind internationally. I could be proven wrong, but the fact that it's brewed by Robinsons doesn't give me much hope. I've tried a few of their ales and they were all either mediocre or shite.

Atleast it can't be worse than the band!

It's no different than all the band wines popping up lately. Motorhead was one of the first to come out with their own:

And their own wine glasses as well.

Then other bands started following. It's all about selling merchandise and making money. I don't know how many bands are out there with their own wine but I have seen quite a few. Latest one was Greatful Dead from http://www.winesthatrock.com/
It's most likely same wine with different logo on it. You can pay $18 or $23 for the wine plus shipping or go to the liquor store and get the same bottle for $8.99.

Of course it's all about merchandising but I had hopes it can be a decent or good beer since they worked with a regional brewery. It looks it isn't he case.

About wine, for 20$/€ you can find a very good wine here in France for this price and I have no doubt it's the same case in any wine-producing country, USA included. The IRON MAIDEN beer isn't more expensive than anything that's not a generic brand here. You won't find craft beer at less than 4€ a 75cL bottle here, even when buying a pack at the brewery itself.

Really you bunch of cock sucking dog dicks are beyond retarded.

Putting your band name towards an ale/beer is fuckin genius.

HAIL IRON MAIDEN.

maybe you think that it would be better to have a Blasphemy energy powder/drink limited to just 100 saches with a patch and faggot sticker???

I'd like some Obituary meth instead.

The booze could go along good with the GHOST dildo box set. Loosen up a tight ass for easier penetrations.

I wonder if any South American fans are gonna hold their bottle close and weep while looking to the sky.

I find this sort of thing really corny and lame. Beer in general sucks, so I definitely don't expect much from Iron Maiden beer.

Are these bottles of booze so intense to bring anyone to their knee's though?
