Written by John Edward BetancourtThere are two things that make Denver Comic Con just an absolutely phenomenal event. The fact that this convention is becoming rich with yearly traditions all around the Denver Metro area and also that they find a way to include every single one of their fans/attendees. Case in point, the annual Denver Comic Con Beer. Ever since the con's inception in 2012, there has been a custom beer for beer drinkers and comic con fans alike to enjoy and every single year, they open it up to the public to help name this tasty brew and over the years, the fans have come up with some awesome alcoholic monikers. The Fantastic Pour, The Caped Brewsader, Brews Wayne, Hulk's Mash, and Snape-ricot all came from the minds of Comic Con fans and the time has come to name this year's beer as well. Now this year's brew is a Bohemian-style Pilsner and according to Breckenridge Brewery which has brewed the beer for the convention since the beginning the beer is; 'delicate and well-balanced, light yet complex. Saaz hops, a classic pilsner ingredient, impart a pleasant, earthy aroma while giving spicy flavor characteristics and a crisp, dry finish.' If anything, it's important to have an idea of what the beer will taste like because one of you out there is going to be the one to name it and as I mentioned before, Denver Comic Con is currently taking submissions to name this year's tasty brew and here is how you can get in on the fun. Head over to this specific post on Denver Comic Con's Facebook page and enter what you think the name should be in the comments section, and act fast because the opportunity to submit your name for the beer will close on Thursday, March 23rd, 2017 at 5:00 p.m. MST. Once the submissions are in, Denver Comic Con and Breckenridge Brewery will whittle the field down to four names that all of us can vote upon. Also at this point, I'm sure you're also wondering what the winning name will earn outside of bragging rights for the person who submits the winning moniker and well...the prize is quite the treat. The winning name will be turned into art by a local artist, and that illustration will be featured on this year's pint glass, and the person responsible for giving the beer its name will receive a special prize pack from Breckenridge Brewery that includes free beer for a year and a Denver Comic Con Beer Tap Handle. So hey, get creative, have some fun and submit your name for this year's beer because who knows, your idea may be the winner this year and you'll get to hoist your idea, immortalized on a pint glass with pride, at this year's Beer Release Party. But you'll never know...unless you enter and we here at Nerds That Geek, wish you the best of luck!
