  1. Haru -- That one guy from that one place with that kinda amusing post... right. -- says:

    That must be what was going on behind the secret door in Castle Anthrax. Zoot’s a bootlegger!

  2. P. Almonius says:

    I’ll have a Foster’s, Bruce.

  3. Kriel says:

    It’s not bad either …

  4. jutting forth says:

    Why did they cross out the GR if the word ALE is already written on it? *scratches head*…

    Also: Monty Python themed ale? What the ****? Cashing in on Monty Python is just wrong.

    • Xebi says:

      Doesn’t that rather depend on whose idea it was/who created it?

      • Mallorn says:

        It’s made by the Black Sheep brewery in Masham, Yorkshire. It’s not far from where I grew up and if you visit the town you can go on brewery tours. However if you want a good tasting beer I’d suggest their Riggwelter, Yorkshire square ale or from the related Theakston brewery next door “Old Peculier”.

        • Xebi says:

          I’m not a massive fan of Black Sheep actually (although Golden Sheep is lovely), but I won’t turn down a pint of Old Peculier on a cold day :-D

    • daSkeptik says:

      There a Monty Python reunion special coming up in the near future, this is just part of the Marketing blitz leading up to it.

  5. Lucien Jacquet says:

    …and there was MUCH rejoicing :-)

  6. Uninspired Required Name says:

    I’ve had that, it’s pretty good.

  7. plasticfroggy says:

    After you open the bottle you have to drink it in 5…er…3 seconds.

  8. Teapartyoccupier says:

    This isn’t a win, it’s product placement.

  9. LordEd says:

    The product being placed is from 1974, and it still not quite dead yet.

  10. Dan says:

    That stuff is really good. I’ve had it.

  11. Bob-H says:

    Holy Ail Ale, as in Holy Sickness Ale? Maybe they should erase the X.

  12. Guesty McGuest says:

    Good beer – and the black X is actually part of the packaging design, FWIW.

    Here’s another: the Black Knight’s Reserve

  13. FLS says:

    It’s actually a really good beer, Their Black Knight special edition is awesome…

  14. ruyvaert says:

    I can’t believe Monty Python fans are still there. Please, let it go. It was funny in the seventies and it lasted quite some time, but in 2012, we’ve had it. Even nerds should be bored by now.

    Ni, ni, zoot, wink and nudge, lumberjacks, silly walks, albatross. We all know the references, we have seen it over and over and over and we know it is fun for smart people. Now can we please move on?

    Thanxalot!

  15. QQQ says:

    You can’t say Ni to this Ale.

  16. Uncle_Grunty says:

    Wow, my parents have like 5 cases of this stuff in their beer fridge and they aren’t even huge Monty Python fans.

  17. Graham says:

    Oh, and I agree with the earlier poster who said the beer was horrible. Ordered it at a bar once, and the barkeep said “Would you like to try it first”? When I did, I said “I think I’m going to order something else.” She said “Most people do. That stuff is terrible.”

  18. gull faraz says:

    Good post, Love it. Keep it up. I appreciate it.

  19. Aloïs says:

    I really kinda hope the person who posted this isn’t just discovering Holy Grail Ale. This has been around for a while. Yeah, it’s cool and all and when I first saw when I did (I think I was like… 7) I thought it was so cool, because I love Monty Python, but still…

  20. jhopps says:

    this stuff has been out for 7 years it sales like crap (i know i a beer salesmen) and we are just getting a pic of this now?

  21. Danimal says:

    LOL I still have a bottle of this left in the fridge.

  22. shadowhumper says:

    What? The word “Ale” was already below “Grail”, why didn’t they just cross out Grail?
