While Game of Thrones mega fans might still be suffering from the trauma of knowing the HBO behemoth will be winding up in 2019, at least there’s consolation on the horizon.
And it’s one set to appeal to more than just the show’s devotees.
HBO have partnered with New York brewery Ommegang to launch a new beer called King in the North, inspired by Jon Snow.
You’ll have to wait a bit to try it though, as the limited edition beer will only be available from this coming Black Friday (23 November) for $13 (£10.12) a bottle.
It’s not the only GOT inspired tall boy on the market, with another three also in the works to complete the set of Game of Thrones-inspired Royal Reserve Collection, each one a homage to characters pillaging each other throughout the Seven Kingdoms.
Previous editions have included a barleywine called Hand of the Queen, a sour blonde blend called Queen of the Seven Kingdoms, and a smoked porter and kriek blend called Mother of Dragons.
‘Inspired by Jon Snow, this barrel-aged imperial stout is brewed to sustain a leader through a long, dark night,’ says the product description.
‘The beer pours jet black with a thick tan head, and has aromas of roasted malt, coffee, and chocolate blend with those of oak, bourbon, and vanilla.’
Well, it’s enough to keep you lightly sozzled until Season 8 gallops up to take over the last vestiges of your social life.
