In 1986, the movie Top Gun catapulted to the top of our cult media with the story of fast planes and small words.  The world back then didn’t want nuance, they wanted to win.  Russians bad, Americans kick ass. That simple. 

Well we wanted to win with this fast beer out of the chute. Talk to Me Goose Amber has a bold in your face flavor that has a solid finish and a strong citrus current.  You want subtle flavors? Goto belgium.  You want a big beer? Come to ‘Merica. This beer has big grains and lots of alcohol- at 7.7% ABV it’s got the afterburners you need when you’ve got a tower to buzz.

We made this beer in the style of an Amber Ale because, well, we don’t make IPAs.  But right now it seems every beer drinkin’ work boot wearin’ faux post Mean Eyed Cat modern hipster says they love an IPA.  So instead with give you this brew. Because after a long day of chasing bogies and playing beach volleyball, nothing refreshes like a tall cold glass of Talk to me Goose. Because sometimes you just have the need. The need, for speed.
