  • SUCK ON A JACK BLACK

    20 Feb 2008 by Seth Rotherham in Alcohol, Associated Brands

    Not to be confused with Jack Black, the comedian. This is Jack Black, the beer – named after Jack Black, the 1920’s American outlaw, who came WAY before any other Jack Black that you may know. And I’m pleased to report that Jack Black Premium Classic Beer is out and about in Cape Town.

    I was maxin’ and relaxin’ at Caprice the other day and cast my eyes down at the glass beer fridges behind the bar.

    “What the fuck is that?” I politely asked.

    “That’s Jack Black, a new beer we’re stocking” the barman replied.

    “Hmm, grab me one..” I instructed.

    Hmm – what have we here…

    Crisp, flavoursome and ever so slightly sexual – I proceeded to clean about five of them. I could feel the outlaw in me coming out as I demanded some explanation. From what I can remember, the barman recalled some story about Mr. Jack Black and the fact that he was a master brewer who found himself in a bit of a pickle during the American Prohibition (thank GOD we didn’t have to deal with that). Not that it stopped him – he didn’t give a toss and kept on producing his special brand of beer.

    Look, the guy got sentenced to death, but that’s not going to stop us from celebrating his very 2oceansvibe maverick spirit. Jack Black Beer is now being produced in small batches right here in their Western Cape microbrewery. It is thoroughly enjoyable and I suggest you give it a bash.

    I checked out their website and it proudly declares:”Jack Black is a premium beer with no compromises, no apologies and no prisoners.” Nice, I like that vibe.

    I dug a little deeper and found Jack Black Beer available at ULTRA Liquors in Green Point. Oh very clever! I bought a case and I stocked my fridge. This is what my life looks like at the moment
