A ‘True Detective’ Fan Penned A Pretty Terrific Review Of Lone Star On A Beer Website

Two of my favorite things in the world are (1) people being harmless rascals on the Internet, and (2) how super into True Detective everyone is right now, so this is so far inside my wheelhouse that it might as well have a key: A user named nfatoots wrote the following review of Rust Cohle’s favorite beer, Lone Star, back on February 21 on the website Beer Advocate:

4.75/5 rDev +93.9%
look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 5 | feel: 5 | overall: 5

Served in a can. Consumed from said can.

I was being grilled by a couple of company men, and I decided to at least get a beer run out of it. Finally, the sixer of tall boys was placed in front of me. These brews are best enjoyed in dreams that happen in a locked box inside of your head.

Lone Star may also be enjoyed alongside one Reginald Ledoux, on your porch in Carcosa, or in pursuit of the King in Yellow.

Be warned – at the end of every sixer, there’s a monster.

Serving type: can

I support this type of thing with all of my heart. The only downside is that Mr. or Ms. nfatoots wrote it up before Rust started fashioning the empties into little beer can men. I feel like that could have been helpful information for prospective drinkers slash arts and crafts fans.

Thanks to Shea for the tip
