About this beer

Government Overbeer, a witbier brewed by Gentle Giant Brewing Company of South Glens Falls, New York, presents at 4.5% Alcohol by Volume. The label, dominated by a circular graphic resembling a calendar with month indicators and numbers circling its perimeter, features a bold, handwritten-style font for the beer's name, “Gnarzilla” with “Witbier Ale” beneath. This witbier is described simply as “withbier,” hinting at a traditional Belgian wheat beer style. No specific ingredients are listed on the label, but witbiers generally include unmalted wheat, coriander, and orange peel, contributing to a flavor profile typically characterized by a hazy appearance, subtle spice, and citrusy notes. The keg’s volume is noted as 15.5 U.S. gallons, with the batch number prominently displayed along the top of the circular design.

The label also includes standard legal warnings regarding responsible consumption and the risks associated with alcohol. A separate section details instructions for proper tapping, referencing pressurized kegs and the need for appropriate pressure regulators. The overall aesthetic is rustic, with the hand-written branding elements and calendar-like imagery suggesting a small-batch, craft brewery focus.
