In 1933 (post-prohibition), William Hamm Junior, the president of the Hamm’s Brewery, was kidnapped and held for ransom by the Ma Barker gang. Beer being the price for his safe return, a cool $100,000 was needed to “pay off” the crooked Saint Paul “officials”. Citrus is the name of the game in Junior’s Ransom, as an enticing blood orange aroma teams up with fruity hops and rich malt to bring you a brew that is both juicy and delightfully bitter. While it won’t earn you a cool hundred grand, drinking Junior’s Ransom will still make you feel as though you’ve scored big.
