Just in time for spooky season Von Trier has tapped Old Irving Brewing Co.’s Lifesblood.
A vampiric dark l***r brewed with high-quality, floor-malted Bohemian Dark malt, several accompanying roasted malts, and hopped with noble hop, Tettnang. Ranked 34th in W**e Enthusiast’s Top 50 b**rs in 2022, this l***r utilizes spunding, a brewing technique that naturally carbonates the b**r during fermentation. This causes the liquid to become carbonated under pressure and produce a finer carbonation and improves flavor retention. 6%ABV 🦇

Milwaukee takes its bloodies seriously. We came prepared. 🏴‍☠️🍅

Meet the Anne Bonny: a bold, briny Bloody Mary named for one of history’s most feared female pirates.
Old Bay, malt vinegar, fresh dill, and pickle brine bring the coastal character, while horseradish and Tabasco deliver a slow burn worthy of the high seas.

Now available at Von Trier. Come aboard and taste the storm. 🍻

Everyone knows Milwaukee takes their Bloody Marys seriously, so we decided to step up our game. Four new options have landed at Von Trier, each with a b**r back, plentiful garnish, and all with a Von Trier twist. Here are two options for you to savour on.

Haus Bloody Mary

Inglehoffer horseradish for some German bite, Worcestershire and black pepper for depth, Old Bay for that briny, coastal snap, and olive brine and fresh lemon to keep it bright. Garnished with a skewer of chopped landjäger, a Wisconsin cheese curd, an olive, a lemon wedge, and celery stick. Served with a 3 Sheeps Von Trier Pils b**r back, because the house Bloody Mary deserves a house b**r chaser.

Blutige Mary

The German Mary. Löwensenf Extra Hot mustard, Inglehoffer horseradish, and Tabasco bring the heat, while Maggi, kraut brine, and fresh lemon add that savory, tangy depth. A touch of caraway and Gilka Kümmel, plus a splash of Underberg, gives it a bitter, Bavarian, herbal kick you won't find anywhere else. Garnished with chopped cranjäger, a cheese curd, a lemon wedge, and a celery stick. Chase it with a Weihenstephaner Vitus on the side. Only available on the weekends.

Seriously German. All Von Trier. Prost!

BRLO German IPA Tapping Event. Thursday, October 22, 7-9pm

When you think about German b**r, you probably don't think IPA. Germany is the home of Kölsch, altbier, Berliner weisse, gose, and weissbier. But, that hasn't stopped the innovators at BRLO from tackling this craft category. BRLO's German IPA is brewed exclusively with Hallertau-grown Comet, Hüll Melon, and Polaris and 100% German ingredients in full accordance with the Reinheitsgebot, German B**r Purity Law. This heavily dry-hopped amber IPA bursts with ripe tropical fruit, red berries, and warm caramel toffee, finishing with that desired IPA bitterness.

Join us and our friend Alex Borges for a special tapping of this special German IPA. Thursday, October 22, 7-9pm. 2235 N Farwell Ave, Milwaukee.
