Rapper-Inspired Craft Beers

This Flavorful Craft Brew is Named After a Kanye West Lyric

Anyone who's heard Kanye West's latest album 'The Life of Pablo' will know that one of the songs features a line that goes "I miss the old Kanye"; now, that line is lending itself to the name of a new craft brew developed by Baltimore-based craft brewery Artisanal Stillwater.

In terms of the actual drinking experience, this particular craft brew features an array of bold flavors drawn from anise, clove, juniper berries and vanilla beans. The beer offers an 8 percent alcohol rating and promises a delicious taste that is inspired by the brash and bold personality of Yeezy himself.

The craft brew's name is also an intelligent marketing ploy that will surely help make more people aware of Artisanal Stillwater, exposing them to the brewery's numerous other award-winning beer offerings.
