Director David Lynch and brewery company Mikkeller are collaborating to release Twin Peaks beers. Fans of the iconic TV show (and its recent remake) will be able to enjoy not just one but three varieties. This includes the Red Room Ale, the Log Lady Lager and the Damn Good Coffee Stout. That last one is made with the filmmaker's own coffee, the David Lynch Signature Cup Organic House Blend. He previously designed a Dom Perignon label as well.
Each beer can features a different illustration of a memorable Twin Peaks scene. The beer was launched not too long ago at Lynch's Festival of Disruption in LA. The Twin Peaks beers are also available for sale at Mikkeller's locations in San Francisco, San Diego, Oakland and Los Angeles.
