Joining Fallout 4, Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 Gets Its Own Beer
Naturally, it's called "Black Hops."
Yet another video game is getting its own beer. Australian beer company Black Hops Brewing has announced a partnership with Activision for a Call of Duty: Black Ops III-inspired beer called "Black Hops Midnight Pale Ale." It's described as "light and refreshing with tantalising hop aromas of pine and citrus fruit."
The brewers fused it with a "specialty roasted wheat" to create a "deep rich black color without any of the harsh roast or bitter flavors that you might expect from a dark ale," according to the beer's official description (via GameZone).
The 4.8 percent alcohol beer ships November 2 in Australia only. For more, watch the video above or visit the beer's website.
If you're wondering why Activision didn't partner with Black Hops Brewing sooner, it might be because the company was only founded in November 2014. In the video, they explain how their partnership with Activision came to be and more.
Another big video game with its own beer is Fallout 4. Bethesda worked with beer-maker Carlsberg for the drink, which will be sold only in the United Kingdom.
Black Ops 3 launches on November 6 for Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PC.
