    I already have one named after me: Arrogant Bastard.

    Sorry all, I saw the thread first.

    I'd think a Barrel Aged Creepin Jeeper Imperial Stout would be pretty awesome ....

    Too bad Ivan the Terrible isn't around to see his legacy in carbonated glory. :wink:

    But yes, it'd be a bit odd to see yourself on a label.

    I have pipedreams of home brewing. I was going to name my English style barleywine "Cobbler's Hammer" since that is an actual thing, and my last name is Shoemaker. That is as close as I would ever get to having a beer named after me.

    One brewery actually named three beers after me.

    We do too have a beer named after us!

    Lagunitas needs to do a version of this beer.

    Avery named a beer after the most prolific rater around, Ratman.

    @slander Did you even rate your own beer? Cause I don't see any 5 ratings.

    Bernie Kosar is so 1980s that I wonder if this stuff will sell. (That info is intended for you youngsters out there. :wink:)

    If I recall correctly Bernie Beer should have zero hops with poor lacing. It should have an earthy aroma like a freshly sacked QB.

    I don't rate beer, just places.

    Lovely beer, though. Their Belgian Golden Ale (Lunacy) bretted up.

    Full Sail has a beer called "Phil's Existential Alt" so there's that. Always wanted to track down a bottle.

    I think I'd rather just have a sandwich named after me- this way there's no issues with photos or anything like that.:slight_smile:

    That's pretty cool! Wonder if he knows, and if he's had it? Also, wonder if he even cares for craftbeer
