I am the Rain King. I mean Storm King.

Man I almost got all wicked nostalgic tonight when I cracked a Victory Storm King. For some fucking reason the goddamn Wallflowers popped up all in my head. Then I started thinking about the retarded fucking name of this beer. Storm King. Really? That’s like Counting Crows’ “Rain King.” And then I realize that album came out more than half my life ago. Too bad Kevorkian’s gone. Seriously, I’m feeling all three-fifths of a person after remembering this song, as it’s been around for that much of my life and I think Adam Duritz was sum sort of mulatto.

Don Storm Martin Luther King.

This shit is a fucking maltgasm of fucking power and all roasted like King David if he were alive in Hitlerian times. This shit as all balls-to-the-wall with the darkness, yet the hops bring a brightness to the surface. It’s all like The Help‘s being nominated for best picture in the fucking Oscars and whatnot, all shiny and superficial and making white people think they’ve done something worth a shit for black people, ever. Nonetheless it’s good as fuck and I would drink it right now and tomorrow morning if someone delivered it on my front fucking step like a milkman or some shit. That would be hell of cool. God I would drink some fucking Dark Intrigue right now.

 

Victory Dark Intrigue

“Dark Intrigue,” a term originally coined by Freud meaning “an obsessive concern with putting it in the butthole,” has found new life in our modern lexicon as a beer name. Also, thanks to the ultra-PC crowd, I think it has something to do with Jungle Fever in a church setting.

Browneye Girl.

Now this shit is supposed to be Victory’s Storm King all aged in bourbon barrels and whatnot, but I think my bourbon receptors are fucking overloaded from overconsumption recently due to the launch of itsafuckingbourbon.com.(What what, incestuous nepotism in the house!) Tastes like a nice chocolaty goddamn stout to me, if a little light on the body, with a wee little bourbon flavor. I mean it’s good as shit, but I’m used to Foothills all agin’ shit in Pappy Van Winkle barrels. Victory must have gone for some Old Grandad or Evan Williams or some such. Nonetheless it’s delicious as fuck and I think I might be catching the dark intrigue, if you know what I mean.

But now I want some bourbon. What were we talking about?
