How do you like your beer?

Do you prefer it "Lannister Gold"? Or perhaps "Night's Watch Castle Black?"

You'll certainly be able to get your hands on "Iron Throne Bronze Ale."

HBO is teaming up with Brewery Ommegang for a line of beers inspired by Game of Thrones, launching along with season three of the show on March 31.

Iron Throne, described by Ommegang as a blonde ale, will be the first in a series of beers available on draft and in bottles.

Ommegang, based out of Cooperstown, New York, primarily brews Belgian style ales. And for all the excitement surrounding the coming Game of Thrones line, the image most commonly circulated is not the official bottle label (above), but a line of mock beer labels created by an illustrator and posted on Redbubble.com.
