May the Fourth Be With You (2022)
May the Fourth
Its that day again. A nerd day of celebratory and galactic proportions. A day to jump on Nintendo Switch Online, on LEGO.com, on Star Wars.com and who knows how many other fan sites and branding sites to get tons of Star Wars related deals.
Its also a day here to celebrate Star Wars in general, and on The Beer Thrillers we are definitely doing that! We definitely love covering Star Wars here on The Beer Thrillers, and I think it shows with our sheer number of Star Wars themed beer reviews, Book of Boba Fett review, and even Star Wars book reviews. On our Facebook page you can find us often linking and sharing to various new beer releases by different (somewhat nearby for me) breweries that are Star Wars themed. (Like just yesterday we shared that Gusto Brewing is releasing two Star Wars themed beers…. which reminds me I need to get back to Gusto Brewing, loved their brewery.)
Star Wars and The Beer Thrillers
Let’s show off that full range of articles we’ve covered here on The Beer Thrillers about Star Wars. And yes, there is certainly a lot! (You can use the search function on the right hand side of the blog to find all of our articles of any type you want, put in ‘Star Wars’ into the search function, a whole host of Star Wars beer reviews, book reviews, and general articles will pop up.)
(To go to the articles, click on the linked headline, and it will take you directly to the article you want to read.)
First up on our look back over various Star Wars articles, let’s talk about my 2020 post discussing May the Fourth.
May the Fourth (2020)

In this article, I broke down what Star Wars Day is (May the Fourth) and discussed what Star Wars articles I had written up to that point. (Don’t worry, there have been PLENTY of new Star Wars content since then.)
Beer Review: This is the Way (Broken Goblet)
![](https://thebeerthrillers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/This-is-the-Way.webp)
One of the first Star Wars themed beers I reviewed here on the blog, and one of our most popular beer review articles. A good friend (Roy Ge) picked it up for me and Drew to drink at his place while we did a podcast about The Mandalorian. Was an absolutely wonderful beer. They have released a few variants since. One of which I am covering in the upcoming weeks with the Obi-Wan Kenobi show.
Beer Review: This is Nut The Fluff You Are Looking For (Fourscore Beer Co)
![](https://thebeerthrillers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Nut-The-Fluff.webp)
Picked this big bad boy of a bottle up when I was in Gettysburg with Ming and Don and brought it back to drink with Drew. As you can see on the blog, you’ll be able to find several Fourscore Beer Co reviews (you can even find Amy’s latest beer review right here – Phantomania). They are a phenomenal brewery that loves delving into Star Wars themed beers. We just picked up a four pack of soft swerves from them that were Star Wars themed, and can’t wait to dive into them here for the blog.
Beer Review: Out of Order – Blue Milk (RAR Brewing)
![](https://thebeerthrillers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Blue-Milk.webp)
One of our most popular articles on the blog (right up there with our yearly March Madness tournament posts, our review of Yuengling’s Hershey Porter, and with the Broken Skulls IPA by Stone Cold). This was the first of the Out of Order series I’ve reviewed, and it was a solo one they originally did, but then brought back when they did their Star Wars release in 2021. You’ll find others from that series down below.
Beer Review: Wookie Monster (Fourscore Beer Co)
![](https://thebeerthrillers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Wookie-Monster.webp)
Another excellent beer, and another Star Wars themed beer by Fourscore Beer Co. Had to work to get this one because I missed out on their initial release and it sold out quickly. Got it through a trade chain through the Central PA Whalerz group, and was I ever so grateful. Delicious beer.
Beer Review: The Pandalorian (Tattered Flag)
![](https://thebeerthrillers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/The-Pandalorian.webp)
From our good friends at Tattered Flag comes this mash-up parody beer called The Pandalorian. This is a very juicy, tasty New Engand IPA that hit the spot on a warm sunny day in November. Soon after my trip back from Indianapolis, (as you can tell by the Vonnegut glass), I got lucky and still had some nice warm November days, and I took full advantage of it laying out and drinking in the sun while reading.
Beer Review: Java the Stout (Jackie O’s Brewery)
![](https://thebeerthrillers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Java-the-Stout.webp)
One of the beers I picked up on my trip to and from Indianapolis was Java the Stout by Jackie O’s. It was a delicious stout that “lived up to its name”. Also, the can art is absolutely phenomenal. Its worth checking out just for that.
Beer Review: This is the Whey (Bolero Snort)
![](https://thebeerthrillers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/This-is-the-Whey.webp)
One of the first Star Wars themed beers I’ve reviewed by Bolero Snort, and a fantastic beer. The other was BoBull Fett and I reviewed that for the premier episode of ‘Book of Boba Fett‘.
Beer Review: The Mangalorian (Brewery Fire)
![](https://thebeerthrillers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Mangolorian.webp)
In early January I hiked with Ming in the Catoctin Mountain area of Maryland. Afterwards we stopped at Brewery Fire and I picked this up to go. This was my May the Fourth review last year. Wonderful beer, and a great brewery that loves their nerd and pop culture references.
Beer Review: BoBull Fett (Bolero Snort)
![](https://thebeerthrillers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/BoBull-Fett_1.webp)
Another beer review from Bolero Snort, and this time a crowler. We traveled out to New Jersey to pick this up the day of the premier for Book of Boba Fett and then reviewed it for the show as our first of the weekly beer reviews for our “Star Wars Wednesdays”. A fantastic beer.
Beer Review: Out of Order – Tatooine Tart (RAR Brewing)
![](https://thebeerthrillers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Tatooine-Tart.webp)
Back to RAR Brewing and their Out of Order series. Part of their Star Wars batch of the Out of Order series (along with Blue Milk making its return). Jabba’s Palace scene on the background on the computer from Return of the Jedi. As you can also see with the BoBull Fett beer review, the beginning of all the Star Wars LEGOs being shown in the beer pics.
Beer Review: Out of Order – RAWRGWAWGGR (RAR Brewing)
![](https://thebeerthrillers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/RAWRWAWGGR.webp)
On a cold wintery snowy day in January (January 19th), and another Star Wars Wednesday, I took this Hoth like scene pic with another great Out of Order series beer from RAR Brewing.
Mead Review: The Meadalorian (Space Time Meadery and Cidery)
![](https://thebeerthrillers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/The-Meadalorian.webp)
Our first Mead review on the blog, and it was a fantastic mead. Check out Space Time Meadery and Cidery if you are in the Scranton PA area. You won’t be disappointed.
Beer Review: Let the Haze Flow Through You (Black Flag Brewing Co.)
![](https://thebeerthrillers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Let-the-Haze-Flow-Through-You.webp)
One of several Black Flag beers we’ve covered on the blog. A top notch brewery we love to hit up whenever we’re able to in the Maryland area. (Its about an hour and a half – plus – drive from our location near Harrisburg.) It has quickly become one of Amy’s favorite breweries. In the background you an also see Troeg’s Double Nugget Nectar which we have reviewed as well.
Beer Review: Wookies and Cream (Tall Tales Brewing Co.)
![](https://thebeerthrillers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Wookies-and-Cream-2.jpg)
On another of our brewery trips (this time making our way from Burley Oak over to Cushwa for their 5th Anniversary Brewfest) we stopped at Tall Tales Brewing Co, where I couldn’t help trying out a Star Wars themed beer… especially a stout!
Beer Review: Out of Order – Droid Juice (RAR Brewing)
![](https://thebeerthrillers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Droid-Juice-2.jpg)
Back to RAR Brewing’s Out of Order series for our next Star Wars beer review, another of our weekly Book of Boba Fett “Star Wars Wednesdays” beer reviews. A wonderful sour from RAR in line with their others from the series (and their Out of Order series as a whole).
