Klingon beer

How do you say ‘chug’ in Klingon? We may soon find out. CBS Consumer Products and The Federation of Beer is announcing the creation of a new Star Trek branded beer – Klingon Warnog. The brew, slated to ship in the US and Canada this year, will be revealed at the Nightclub & Bar Show in Las Vegas on March 25th.

 

Klingon Warnog is a hand-crafted Roggen Dunkel – a bold beer suited for the harsh Klingon lifestyle – and will be the first Star Trek themed beer to hit the U.S.

 Klingon Warnog, Dunkelweizen with Rye: 5.5% ABV, 19 IBU

 

Klingon Warnog is an official Star Trek beer brewed under license by Tin Man Brewing Company of Evansville, Indiana.  This singular beer incorporates rye malt into a modern Dunkelweizen grain bill, creating a flavor profile that is both familiar and unique.  Warnog’s aroma is predominantly mild banana and clove produced by the German wheat yeast, supported by subtle sweet malt character from the use of Munich malt.  The flavor draws heavily from the blending of the rye malt and traditional clove character, creating a very rich and unique flavor.  The inclusion of wheat and caramel malts help to round out the mouthfeel of this beer, making this Dunkelweizen hearty enough to be called a Klingon Warnog.
