Catoctin Creek Distilling Co. partnered with metal rock band GWAR to release their infamous Ragnarök Rye. Aged in charred new white oak, then sugar maple and cherrywood, each bottle of Catoctin Creek’s 92-proof intergalactic rye whisky comes with a cast-metal collectable bottle topper featuring each of the five members of GWAR: Blóthar the Berserker; Balsac the Jaws of Death; Jizmak da Gusha; Beefcake the Mighty; and Pustulus Maximus. Up to 200 cases of Ragnarök Rye will be available throughout Catoctin Creek’s national 29-state distribution footprint, with more on the way soon. It will also be on sale in the distillery’s online store for curbside pickup or direct shipping in Virginia only. Ragnarök Rye is packaged in a 750-ml bottle with a 46% ABV for a suggested retail price of $99.
