Mikkeller releases three new Game of Thrones inspired beers
Game of Thrones is one of the biggest television franchises of all time, and adding its name to a product automatically increases its value. Earlier, in April, Mikkeller launched a new beer dedicated to HBO’s epic fantasy in honour of its 10-year anniversary. They are back with three new beers, all dedicated to several iconic characters/places from the TV show, and they look really awesome.
Though there’s no special occasion this time, we can guess Mikkeller is trying to ride the hype train that was launched recently due to House of The Dragon’s teaser trailer. According to MSN, we can expect the following three additions to the company’s lineup:
Night King Double IPA: A fruity beer with 8-percent ABV, this one serves as a tribute to Game of Thrones’ biggest villain — well, until Arya stabbed him and Cersei became the final boss. The Night King features prominently on the IPA’s can, and it’s an ideal look with winter coming.
Fear is for the winter when the snows fall a hundred feet deep. Fear is for the long nights when the sun hides for years, and children are born and live and die, all in darkness.

Ghost Visions Lager: Dedicated to the goodest boy in Westeros, Ghost Visions Lager is a light lager with 4.5-percent ABV. If you’re not sold on the name alone, the can features Jon holding puppy Ghost.

Castle Black Stout: Aged in bourbon barrels and boasting a whopping 11.3-percent ABV, the Castle Black Stout calls back to the Night’s Watch and has a bottle design highlighting the Watchers on the Wall.
I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the walls. I am the fire that burns against the cold, the light that brings the dawn, the horn that wakes the sleepers, the shield that guards the realms of men. pic.twitter.com/aCzb2pS6iE
