“Game of Thrones” is not an easy show to describe to your non-watching friends. Seriously, is it that hard to login using your brother’s best friend’s HBO password? Fan of the show or not, everyone is bound to enjoy the latest Westeros-themed treat. Johnnie Walker is launching a new “Game of Thrones” whisky.
The new “Game of Thrones” whisky will cleverly be called White Walker and it will be available this fall. According to Forbes, the brand recently dropped the news in a YouTube video with the obvious slogan, “Scotch is coming.”
Right now there’s very little information on the drink beyond the 20 second clip that really only features the Johnnie Walker logo over a “Game of Thrones”-esque backdrop. In reply to curious fans in the comments section, the alcohol brand wrote, “We’re excited to be partnering with HBO on White Walker by Johnnie Walker, which will launch this fall. Stay tuned for more details in the coming months!”
If the suspense of drinking a “GoT”-inspired alcoholic bevvie is making you sweat more than when the White Walkers are marching towards the wall, you have some options. There are a couple of red and white wines and a handful of Westeros-themed beers you can get your hands on in the meantime.
Keep in mind, while White Walker by Johnnie Walker and any other “Game of Thrones” liquor will probably make you feel invincible, you’re human and you have very real limits. You’re no White Walker, or even Tyrion Lannister.
