Do Angels go on diets? One would suppose not. They’re
already dead, so they don’t have to worry about cholesterol or heart
attacks. Everyone loves them, so appearance is not an issue. And hey it’s
heaven, so the food must be divine. It has been said that in heaven there is
no beer, that’s why we drink it here. I disagree. If there is no beer there,
it more closely resembles the Other Place in my book. No, in my version of
heaven, the beer must flow freely, brews of all sorts and types and all at
the perfect serving temperature.
Of course, the beer is free, and the bartender refuses to be tipped. All of your drinking buddies are present, and for once they aren’t drinking all of your private stock out of the DBR. The glasses hold a full liter, and yet the beer never gets too warm. And of course, you can drink all you like without having to worry about driving home (you have wings after all). Most importantly, you never get a hangover.
The Fat Angel on the label is a bit of an anomaly. He has wings and a halo, horns and a forked tail. Angel or devil, or perhaps a bit of both, the Fat Angel knows good beer. From the website:
Under and Over The Fat Angel Lurks Aligning the cosmos with all of it's quirks The ruler and keeper of opposite keys The Fat Angel does what the Fat Angel please.
Magic Hat’s Fat Angel pours to a light golden color with a thick creamy head and a spicy, yeasty nose. The palate is very crisp, biscuity and fresh from the pale malt, slightly chewy from the crystal and Munich, tart and quenching from the wheat. A distinctive Ringwood mushroom character is present as well as a touch of buttery diacetyl. Dry Hopped with East Kent Goldings, Fat Angel is slightly bitter in the finish. A wonderfully refreshing, flavorful, and quaffable brew.
Dare I recommend it with angel food cake? It might go nicely with that heavenly dessert, but it also pares nicely with swordfish, shrimp, and most especially lobster. Fat Angel, like many beers, also goes well with sex. Or at least, the alcohol in beer is known to lower inhibitions and make sex more likely at times. Because of this, Magic Hat has launched an odd campaign to distribute condoms that they call “Magic Hats” (figure it out for yourself). The condoms are sold in packages of 12 for $9.00 and can be purchased through www.magichat.net.
