Beer Review: Arctic Panzer Wolf

Let’s face it, our society can’t last much longer, look around you and observe the great hedonistic consumption machine that is America.  If I’m right and the apocalypse is upon us then we're really only going to need one thing.  Beer.  We have to be realistic here, not just any beer will do in a dystopian-big brother-future run entirely by zombies, we need a beer of epic proportions, we need ARCTIC PANZER WOLF.  As Mao Zedong once said “There is great disorder under heaven, the situation is excellent.”  The situation is indeed excellent if you can sip on a great bottle of Three Floyds Arctic Panzer Wolf while watching Zardoz drop guns on the barbarian hordes.

This picture gives me the weirdest boner.

Three Floyds is infamous for pumping out extraordinary beers and Arctic Panzer Wolf is no exception.  Arctic Panzer Wolf is an intense explosion of citrus, pine, sweet malt, and hops!  This beer pours out a decently thick head, maybe a half of an inch, but it disappears quickly (probably within the first few minutes, so enjoy it while it lasts.)  The beer has a nice orange/brown color with a little bit of haze floating through.  Upon first whiff, your nose will be overpowered with hops and pine!  The taste follows nicely with the smell, the hops sort of fade into the citrus and the malt, for being a Three Floyds beer it didn’t have an overly hoppy taste to it.  Some of the more hoppy beers out there often over power the taste, but APW hits you mostly at the finish and then lingers a bit in the after taste.  The mouth feel may have been my favorite part; APW is a dry beer with a great amount of carbonation.

I think this is an arctic panzer wolf.

Overall, Arctic Panzer Wolf is great on a hot day when you’re trying to outrun the flesh eating zombie communist hordes who want to procreate with your sister…or on any other just regular day.
