EPISODE 12
Ninkasi "Ground Control" Imperial Stout
This beer flew into space, and home again
(Its yeast, at least – I think that qualifies!)
It pours quite worthy of this origin,
With color black as airless, sunless skies
The scent of hazelnuts comes to the fore
(As "Doctor Hazelnut," I quite approve!)
The flavor features hazelnuts once more,
With cocoa and star anise on the move
The rich, sweet maltiness grinds to a stop
As hoppy bitterness climbs to a peak
Apollo, Bravo, also Comet hops –
A very cosmic trio, so to speak
They named it "Ground Control"; for what it's worth
I'm calling it "The Beer that Fell to Earth"!
