Comedian Tom Green is teaming up with Beau’s All Natural Brewing Co. in Vankleek Hill to create a new beer. The “Tom Green Beer” debuts next month when the Ottawa native does five standup comedy shows at Yuk Yuk’s on Elgin Street from June 13-15. Brewery officials call the milk stout a “balanced black ale” with “flavours of chocolate and coffee, while delivering a creamy, velvety texture and finishing with a mild sweetness.”
“Growing up in the Ottawa area, I’ve been a huge Tom Green fan. Having the opportunity to brew a unique and tasty beer with one of my heroes is quite amazing — really amazing,” said Steve Beauchesne, co-founder of Beau’s, in a statement. “We’re having so much fun with this project, we may decide to make it available as more than just a one-off release … assuming we like the finished beer as much as we think we will.”
