12th Annual JEWBELATION from Shmaltz
November 18th, 2008 by Carly M. Alaimo in Drink, Events, RestaurantsShmaltz, the celebrated Jew brew, is co-hosting a chug fest at Muss & Turner’s Mon., Dec. 15th and a “Chanukah vs. Xmas” dinner at The Porter Wed., Dec. 17th, featuring their newest beer, Jewbelation Twelve.
This was too funny to paraphrase:
JEWBELATION: Rising to 12% alcohol, brewed with 12 malts and 12 hops, bringing a nearly miraculous warming glow to store shelves nationwide from October 2008 through March 2009.
This anniversary, candles won’t be the only thing getting lit!
Behold the fifth incarnation of Jewbelation: our 12th Chosen Beer in 12 Years of Shmaltz. Coincidence? Destiny! Let’s play the Dozens:
The first batch of HE’BREW came to life in California’s 12th Congressional District. 12 pairs of cranial nerves leave the brain. 12 pairs of ribs cage the human frame. 12 inches in a foot. 12 men walked on the moon. 12 months in a year. 12 signs of the Western and Chinese Zodiac. Jacob begat 12 sons who begat the 12 Tribes of Israel. 12 Olympian gods rule the Pantheon of ancient Greece. Jesus had 12 disciples; Muhammad 12 Imams (successors). 12 angels sit at the 12 gates of heaven. Norse warrior-poet god Odin produced 12 sons. The Priests of the Temples of Syrinx proclaim the Brotherhood of Man in 12 songs on Rush’s 2112. Son of a Rabbi, Harry Houdini ran away from home at age 12. In 1912, he reigned as World’s Greatest Escape Artists breaking out of an underwater cage in NYC’s East River @ debutin ghis famed Chinese Water Torture Cell in Berlin. At 12, Courtney Love failed to join the Mickey Mouse Club auditioning with Sylvia Plath’s “Daddy.” The 12 Step Program, the core of AA, spawned over 200 fellowships including Workaholics Anonymous based in Menlo Park, CA. “A scout troop consists of 12 little kids dressed like schmucks following a big schmuch dressed like a little kid.” -Jack Benny.
To the growing minyans of the Schmaltz Tribe, light up the season with our most miraculous Jewbelation yet.
