Booze Journal #26: Midas Touch
Wow... How have I been doing this for half a year? My poor liver! What have you done to me Rooster Teeth community!?

It's a beer! It's a wine! It's,... BOOZE! Midas Touch is a hybrid of two alcohols like no other. Want a nice Chardonnay? Grab one. Want a beer to pound? Grab one. Want to get hammered!? Grab ten! It is potent as well as interesting. Name me one other beer with all of the following ingredients: barley, honey, white muscant grapes & saffron. You can't can you? It is alright though because at least now you can name one.



Here is the official description:
This sweet yet dry beer is made with ingredients found in 2,700-year-old drinking vessels...

My Analysis:
Immediately you can smell fruit when you pour it. The strong flavor of grapes and peaches accompany every sip. The after taste is one of barley and and sweet candied flavors. Has a very sharp bite from the carbonation and is slightly bitter. Still not as harsh as you would expect something with 9% ABV.

Drink this from a wine glass! No joke. That is how you are supposed to enjoy it. This beer was introduced back in 1999 as a "one time only thing" and was so popular that it is now distributed nationwide, year round. The recipe is actually derived from a turkish influence. Because of this it goes tremendously well with the following: Pan-Asian dishes, risotto, curries, baked fish and chicken. This beer is an art and anyone who enjoys beer or wine will love it. So grab a lady friend, cook her an nice dinner and serve her some wine and Yourself a beer all from the same bottle!

I do not support/ condone underage drinking. I am not an expert on alcohol, just an enthusiast. Drink at your own risk.

I just wanted to thank everyone who watches me and reads these every Tuesday. I truly hope that these journals help you when making the decision to expand your palet. I cannot believe that I have been doing this for half a year now. As long as you all appreciate these and keep giving me feedback, I will continue to right these weekly. Like I have said before , I write these to entertain you. Now let's spend another half a year getting hammered!
