A Hazy ipa would be drinkable for a lot of people.grizzh8r wrote: ↑Sat May 11, 2024 5:24 pmJust to make it appealing and drinkable to the broadest selection of Bobcat fans possible, I'd caution going with anything too dark/heavy and/or too hoppy. From a marketability perspective, strongly suggest NOT doing any sort of IPA. Those seem to be the most Problematic. Probably needs to be a medium bodied amber or a lager. That's all I'll say.

As a fan of both Red Ales and our Outstanding President, may I suggest “Waded Red”!

What ever beer they choose, put out a different player from the past including a bio. Jan, Bill, Sonny, Les Leninger, amongst others.

Is that word, and it's association with the school song, more well known now than it used to be? I didn't know anything about it before joining BN. I would guess casual fans wouldn't get it.
I think sticking with something including Bobcats, Gold Rush, Blue&Gold, etc is better from a marketing perspective.

Re: MAP Brewing Co./Bobcat Collective Beer Design
A local brewery should make an official Can the Griz beer. Since we win that competition every year I'd think it would sell well, at least as a seasonal offering.

Re: MAP Brewing Co./Bobcat Collective Beer Design
It's probably more known now since people know the fight song, but "we've got the vim, we're here to win" has been in the fight song for probably longer than any of us have been alive. Still, new fans or outsiders seeing it in a store or on a tap handle might be puzzled, so you're probably right.coloradocat wrote: ↑Wed May 15, 2024 2:49 pmIs that word, and it's association with the school song, more well known now than it used to be?

FYI Mountain Man was a holdover from when that brewery originally opened as The Front Brewing.

So @catgrad05 in another thread said the phrase Blue and Cold. I think that would be a great name.
Blue and Cold cRush-able IPA
