Three Floyd's Alpha King?

This is my favorite beer right now. It seems to be becoming more popular in my neck of the woods. Anyone else like it?

Does anyone know if the bottles are pasteurized?

That's a good question. Back when they had somebody else brewing the bottled version, it was at least heavily filtered. Now that they have their own bottling line I would hope they neither filter nor pasteurize. (Does it even make sense to pasteurize without filtering?)

Dunno about Alpha King but I've heard stories that the some of the first bottlings of Dark Lord were rather heavy with sediment.

If you consider about 16 ounces of beer and 6 ounces of pure sludge to be "rather heavy with sediment" then yeah, they were.

The 16 ounces in question were freakin' amazing, that being said.

You're right. I had a bit from the latest Dark Lord bottling (courtesy of the manager of the local) and a small discussion ensued about that-- the current Dark Lord has apparently been filtered.

I think "dredged" might be a more appropriate term.

I emailed the brewery and they replied that Alpha King in the bottle is not pasteurized.
