I recently contacted Callum Hay and Eric Portelance at the Halo Brewery based in Toronto, Canada, to see whether they would be willing to consider a few suggestions for a name for a halo themed beer. I was very pleasantly surprised when they replied that they would be open to any ideas as they sometimes found it difficult to find a suitable name for their beers. Callum and Eric brew in the Belgian and American traditions but employ a fair degree of experimentation and artistry,
"We use fruit, spices, and other unique ingredients in our recipes to complement the flavours of our malt, hops and yeast. The more interesting ingredient, the better."
Now here is where I would like to hand it over to you. I know that there are many beer connoisseurs amongst our readers and contributors who really appreciate a fine ale. This is a unique opportunity to have a beer named after the subject that is close to our hearts. Perhaps you would like to name it after one of the early pioneers such as Lowitz or Parry, or perhaps you would like to immortalise a particular rare and exotic halo. Likewise, maybe you could also suggest a particular style of beer like a Supralateral IPA, a Wegener dubbel, a Tricker trippel a Subsun Sour or a Parhelic Stout. Use your imagination and let's see what we can come up with. Any and all suggestions will be passed on to Callum and Eric for their consideration. I can't promise that they will definitely use any names we suggest but it will be a fun challenge all the same!
