\"What<\/p>\n

Gene Fielden | Bottlecraft North Park Manager<\/p>\n

A very special Halloween edition of the Picks of the Week!<\/p>\n

Great Notion Beetlejuice Jr.\u00a0| Hazy IPA\u00a0(6%): It\u2019s showtime! Just in time for Halloween, Great Notion Brewing has dropped a trifecta of outr\u00e9 offerings. Taking a cue from the brewery\u2019s immensely popular Juice Jr., meet none other than Beetlejuice Jr., the self-described \u201cbio-exorcist\u201d and all-around agent of chaos in the striped outfit. With a dry-hop of nothing but Mosaic, let\u2019s turn on the juice and see what shakes loose. I cannot promise that if you say the name of this beer three times, it will appear in front of you \u2012\u00a0but give it a whirl just to be sure?<\/p>\n

Prairie Pumpkin Kerfuffle\u00a0| Imperial Sour Ale\u00a0(8.2%): Oklahoma\u2019s Prairie Artisan Ales can always be relied upon for mondo bizarro sour beers, and this autumnal special release is no exception. With gobs of the flavors that make up \u201cpumpkin spice\u201d \u2012 think allspice, nutmeg, cinnamon and so forth \u2012 and marshmallows to make it extra Halloweeny, this is quite a kerfuffle all right. The can-art is directly inspired by Ren\u00e9 Magritte, one of the finest surrealists of all, from the beer-loving country of Belgium.<\/p>\n

Jester King Black Metal\u00a0| Imperial Stout\u00a0(12%): Get out your corpse-paint and fire up the blast beats for this one! Black Metal is a merciless, punishing imperial stout from the inimitable Jester King Brewery of the Texas Hill Country outside of Austin. Stare into the abyss and see for yourself that no light may pass through this ebon opaque beer. To cite Nigel Tufnel of Spinal Tap, \u201cIt\u2019s like, how much more black could this be? And the answer is none. None more black.\u201d<\/p>\n
