Beer + Icebergs + Seaweed = Okhotsk Blue Draft
Alan Kropf / Monday, July 27, 2009
Okhotsk Blue Draft is made from melted icebergs and colored using seaweed. So cool.

melted icebergs = sea water so first question is, so what? Second question is, HOW DOES IT FUCKING TASTE?!?
I have NO idea…waiting for samples…Stay Tuned!
Actually icebergs would be the broken remains of glaciers which is accumulated snow melt and other precipitation. Fresh water floating in the ocean, like seawater on the rocks. Damn the color of that beer is cool.
I know what iceburgs are, Chuck, but I guess what I’m saying is that perhaps they should say it’s made from iceburgs because when you say it’s made from melted iceburgs it sounds like global warming has had its way with an iceburg, and then the company simply gathers the water, which in that case would’ve just combined itself with the ocean water. I know, I know, I’m a picky wench. But semantics matter, damn it!
I like my beer made from melted snow.
Well maybe they just mean “they” melt the icebergs. You would have to have liquid water to make beer.
The color alone makes me think it would taste really watery, which is something I just can’t get out of my head and I’m sure it doesn’t. I’d like to try this though.
Looks like an interesting beer. Cant wait for the follow up.
This is the same brewery that combined beer and milk to get “bilk”
