The clock is ticking to Sunday’s midseason premiere of AMC’s The Walking Dead. And maybe it’s that I had another Zombie dream last night thanks to my late re-viewing of the first half of this season, but I again awoke wondering “what beer goes with a zombie apocalypse?”
We reached out to several local breweries to ask this question last Halloween.

And guess what? There are a few local crafters who do indeed care about your safety in case Zombies do appear.
@Drink314 We think our Irish Red Ale is perfect for the #ZombieApocalypse #DrinkLocal #HoppyHalloween

First of all, it’s good to know we have some breweries with excellent sense of humor and that they understand that Zombies are real.
Be safe out there and remember if you are drinking during the Zombie apocalypse, it’s still no reason not to ask a friend to drive you home.
