The Whirlwind is my favorite wheat beer. But, based on this theory, does that mean if I drink the Arrogant Bastard Ale or the Aass beer that my behavior will start downward spiraling? Victory rocks.

I had the opportunity to live a few blocks from their brewery for several years and it gave me the understanding to really appreciate the fine art that is brewing. I would agree with your assessment on the nature of their names being beyond mere creativity. As you state their names are descriptions of the experience in drinking their brews. I don't believe there is any other brewery that does it like that. In the end its not only their quality that seperates them from the rest but their ability to market truly their product. It is a shame you dislike the hop because they brew a HopWallop that I rate on my top ten list of beers. Victory is by far my most favored of beers.
