Canadian Thrash Metal Legends ANONYMUS Launch Beer “La Bestia”

Canadian Thrash Metal Legends ANONYMUS Launch Beer “La Bestia”

Canadian thrash legends Anonymus are celebrating their recently unleashed 12th studio album “La Bestia” (Bam&Co Heavy) with the launch of their own IPA beer, named in honour of their first Spanish release.

Best known for his shredding skills as guitarist and producer for his band Anonymus, Jef Fortin is proud to demonstrate his other passion… brewing beer!

In 2017, partnering with Reanimator growler Patrick Martin (which Fortin has produced their 2015 album ‘Horns Up’ along with their upcoming 2020 full length), the two joined forces to open La Microbrasserie Le Fermentor in L’Assomption, QC. Located 40 km east of Montreal, beers crafted at Le Fermentor have been receiving great praise from local connoisseurs. With the demand from their thirsty clientele, the operators of Le Fermentor have expanded to bottle their collection of beers. These beers are distributed in the province of Quebec for the time being, but the duo of Fortin and Martin are ambitious to expand and look forward to what the future may hold.

The Anonymus limited-edition beer “La Bestia” is a 6.66 alc/vol dry IPA, which was dry-hopped with Simcoe, Amarillo, and Mosaic hops. Those American hops bring out the citrus, pine, and tropical fruit aromas. Poured into a glass, it reveals a yellow liquid with a nice white head that is very easy to drink.

Anonymus‘ “La Bestia” IPA is also available for online order at www.lefermentor.com/boutique along with a special “Mercre-death” beer launch party hosted by the band on July 22nd at Microbrasserie Le Fermentor (located at 355 Boulevard de l’Ange-Gardien, L’Assomption). The event will begin at 7 pm local time. Full event details can be found HERE.

On June 12th, Anonymus released their latest album “La Bestia” via label Bam&co Heavy. Known for their discography of both French and English releases, “La Bestia” is their first full length that is completely in Spanish. You may be asking why a Spanish album? Well since 3/4 of the band speaks Spanish. Drummer Carlos Araya is Chilean born, and Oscar (Lead Vocals and Bass) and Dan Souto (Guitars and Backing Vocals) are sons of Spanish immigrants it was time to make one.

The tracks on “La Bestia” were produced mainly by guitarist Jef Fortin as well as Colin Richardson who also produced 1999’s ‘Instinct’ and Jean-Francois Dagenais (Kataklysm) who produced 2006’s ‘Chapter Chaos Begins’. The album also features the bilingual song “Violencia Versus Violence” with the participation of Carlos Maldos of Lethal Creation (MX) and Arno Dhenain Le Bourhis of Black Bomb A (FR) along with a second bilingual track “Tierra” with Marco Calliari singing in Italian.

With over 2.5 million streams on Spotify, Anonymus is showing no signs of slowing down. Fans of thrash metal standbys such as Slayer and Testament will no doubt be intrigued by this new offering.
