Days of the Beer, March 15

The beer for today is Belhaven Twisted Thistle IPA.

On March 15, 1955; Daniel "Dee" Snider was born. Snider is most famous for his role as the frontman of the band Twisted Sister.

In 1976, Snider joined Twisted Sister and became the sole songwriter of the band. Their first studio album was Under the Blade in 1982. Their third album, Stay Hungry, was released May 10, 1984; and was their most successful, with the songs "We're Not Gonna Take It" and "I Wanna Rock".

As to the beer:

Belhaven Twisted Thistle IPA is an English India Pale Ale.

A stunning India Pale Ale (IPA), don't think that Belhaven's Twisted Thistle has anything jaggy, spikey, prickly or otherwise pain-inflicting in its nature. Quite the opposite. Your taste buds will tingle with pleasure after a sip or two of this golden nectar. A real treat from our master brewers in Dunbar.
The beer comes in at 5.3% ABV.

So, for Dee Snider and his band Twisted Sister have a Belhaven Twisted Thistle.

When I thought of this, I imagined merging the Twisted Sister and Twisted Thistle and having a lisp.

Tho, for Dee Thynider and hith band twithted thithter, have a twithed thithtle.
