Beer Label of the Month: Three Heads Bromigo

Three Heads Brewing is from Rochester NY, and they have a lineup of great labels.

Those are just a few. Their web site isn’t the best for viewing the label art but check out a Google Image search for Three Heads Brewing. Lots of good stuff there. My favorite of their labels is the Bromigo Smoked Maple Amber Ale.

According to Urban Dictionary a Bromigo is “A friend so close to you he might as well be your brother.” In this case the bromigos are the mythical lumberjack Paul Bunyan and his blue oxen Babe. The bromigos are having some flapjacks and beer to prepare for a long day of chopping down and hauling trees.

Nearby Westwood California is one of the many towns that claims to be Paul Bunyan’s hometown, so I’m of course familiar with the folklore of the oversized lumberjack. Maybe Paul and Babe spent some time in Rochester as well.
