Beer Name:Thirsty Dog Orthus (#245)
Style: Belgian Dubbel
Country: USA
Size: 16 oz draft
ABV: 7.0
From the book: (since this is a special beer and not in the book, I took the following from Thirsty Dog's website) Orthus was the two-headed hell hound brother of Cerberus, the three-headed dog that guarded the gates of hell. Orthus is a Belgian Dubbel brown in color, 7 grains, 3 hops, Trappist high gravity yeast. Very drinkable.
I guess from time to time the Lizard gets some very limited beers that tend to not last through the day. This was one of those instances. To top it off, ordering one of these got you a free 10 oz Goose Island Imperial Brown (which isn't on the tour, even though the server said it was, -1 to him). Another darker beer, not too bad, very smooth drink. Not something you would imagine being named after a hell hound...
6/10
