Created by Tom and Athena Seefurth of Campton Township, Illinois in his lifelong pursuit to combine two of the world’s great loves, pizza and beer. Some say it’s the best pizza beer around. Feh! If I had a dollar for every time I’ve heard this... Oh, but I’ll give it a chance, as I’m a real sucker for unique beer it seems.
Hm. Not to brag, but, it’s a Pizza Parade, babies! Hands down, no question, it is pizza-y. That was the aim of Mister and Missus Seefurth and they achieved it. The nose is slathered in spicy, chunky, robust tomato sauce primarily, with just a slight bready background note. This, of course, carries over into the taste. Along the way, other flavors begin to develop -- some sweetish dough here, some chiffonade basil there. Even a pinch of red pepper spiciness. Oh, and packed with fresh garlic. Ah, the power of garlic. As with any pie, it’s more of the same till the end, though the spices still had legs and carried on well past the finish. As you drink it down, the various flavors really start to come together as it slowly bakes in your gut, all of it settling vaguely under the definition of "pizza", at least in terms of flavor and aroma. No complaints here. However, as with Short’s Bloody Beer, I just can’t see myself calling on this beer every day. Not bad at all, though. Easily the best pizza beer on the market.

Jul 22, 2008 16oz bottle. The aroma was of seasonings when smelled directly from the bottle, but it smelled more like milk after I poured it. Poured a clear golden color. The head was bubbly, white, and reduce to a thin film relatively quickly. No lace was left behind. Light bodied and dry. Tasted like a seasoned cracker and a mouthful of crappy pale lager.

does not count  Jul 21, 2008 Tried it, however couldn’t get past the smell, after two small sips I was done. I’ve never thrown a beer away before but this one I had to, no one else would take my curse. They however did what was intended, it’s like drinking a pizza.

Jul 19, 2008 Updated: Jul 22, 2008Alas, you have been damned. As your body rots and your grave quickly fills with mold, you decend deep into the horrible bowels of the nether-regions of the great beyond. A shadowy figure guides your damned soul across the river Styx, where the pitiful, slobbering dogs of Hades greet you by tearing off your foot. As blood sprays everywhere, Satan emerges from the fiery pillars of Hell and hands you a bottle of Mama Mia Pizza Beer. You pour it into a hollowed-out goat skull, and as you bring the noxious liquid up to your face, your nostrils are scalded by the scathing aroma... human vomit mixture of beer and marinara sauce, regurgitated by a thousand damned souls. Exited to drink beer, your hopes are mercilessly crushed as you taste nothing but vomit and stagnant cheese. You cry to the Gods, begging for mercy, but your pleas go unheard, and Satan laughs as your doom is forever sealed.

Jul 13, 2008 Updated: Jul 14, 2008Bottle thanks to Drnk_McDermott some months ago. Pours a cloudy orange with a thick white head. The aroma is mostly light; some oregano and malt. The taste is kind of like a herb filled Wit; lots of wheat and spices, it does taste like Pizza a bit, but in a mostly good way. Very interesting for sure. Drinkable. If I had a pizza shop I’d sell this for sure. Original.
