The Name

This beer is named after the super-computer in the Douglas Adams book series “Hitchhikers Guides to the Galaxy” which was created to find “the ultimate answer to life, the universe, and everything.” After calculating the answer for multiple eons the computer came back with “42” as the answer. We’re not sure what that means but this was the 42nd batch of beer brewed in 2021 so it may be the answer?
