A Note on This Beer
Every ‘90s kid remembers Squeezits — those squeezable juice bottles with the molded faces on them that came in different colors and flavors, like “Silly Billy Strawberry” and “Grumpy Grape”.
Well, the grown-up version is finally here in today’s Hellboy: Abe Sapien Indigo Pale! It’s BLUE!
But there’s more about this blue-hued brew than its power to rile up the kid inside us! The Best of Craft Beer Award-winning brewers at Portland’s Gigantic crafted Abe Sapien as the 4th special release in their Hellboy Beer Series, celebrating the 25th publication anniversary of the first Hellboy comic.
And just like the comic, this delicious brew is seriously limited-edition — they only made 666 cases of the stuff! Even Portland locals were only allowed 2 bottles of Abe Sapien on release day.
Bottles of today’s beer are already a collectors’ item that comic book geeks and beer nerds alike would be lucky to have! Getting your hands on Abe Sapien will have you feeling like you just stumbled upon a pristine copy of Action Comics #1 at a yard sale: in other words, you struck gold!
Things have changed since the ’90s, but Abe Sapien Indigo Pale is one rare and blue, crushable brew that’s worth sharing (and just a little staring). Score a stash of this scarcely-available sipper while you can, go find that high school yearbook, and call up your old buddies to kick back with some Hellboy comics and blue beer.
