Reels of Steel: MAЛЪK-ГOЛЯM (LITTLE-BIG)


It's been some time since the last (and very first) Reels of Steel, and while this is due to the many movies related to Metal out there for me to go view and filter, today one such movie has broken through the obstacle course of Metalocity.

Unlike the first Reels of Steel, this one is going to provide just a tidbit of details as the story deserves a level of mystery I feel is too special to spoil for first time viewers.

Coup de Grisou Beer (Metal Trek)

Taken from the 2013 Montréal Take Over, Day 5

Griffon Blonde Ale (Metal Trek)

Taken from the 2013 Montréal Take Over, Day 5

Griffon Blonde Ale. From the McAuslan Brewing Company, a beverage worthy of the place serving its golden nectar.

Having a griffin for its mascot is like a Metal band having the same beast decorate its webpage.
