Anyone want to enlighten a poor soul that doesn't get the "Hellhound on my Ale" association?

Finally set aside time to thoroughly enjoy this Hellhound, more like I "experienced" it. Best beer I've ever tasted? No, not by a long shot. Most memorable beer I've ever experienced? Yes, because of everything the Blues represents to me and my soul. Robert Johnson IS the King of the Delta Blues. His music and voice are haunting. Listening to RJ while drinking Hellhound really moved me. I can't explain that. It may sound hokey but it is the honest truth. The Blues runs through my veins and to connect beer and music along with other elements was nearly surreal. I am grateful to my BP Brethren and to kinger especially for sending Hellhound my way. I am indebted and humbled.
big thumbs up buddy! [8D]
