Flying Dog's Lucky SOB Returns

Probably the weirdest plant to ever be brewed.
According to a link I found at The Full Pint, Flying Dog Brewery based in Frederick, MD is due to release it's Lucky SOB Red Ale next Tuesday.

Interestingly enough, this beer is brewed with four leaf clovers picked on St. Patrick's Day last year. Another interesting nugget is that the following poem is recited while the four leaf clovers are added during the brewing process.

"Here's to a long life and a merry one,


A quick death and an easy one,


A pretty girl and an honest one,


A cold beer and another one!"

Luckily for me, I'm heading down to Frederick next Friday as it sits right now. Maybe I'll strike gold and get an opportunity to dive into this beer while on my trip. After all, my girlfriend does live just a few blocks from the brewery.
