I can't find a picture of a label but there's also an Eliminator IPA.  Sounds good.

COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Honey Double Mai Bock is a pale form of bock being a rich medium gold. Compared to a traditional bock it tends to be less malty and more obviously alcoholic. This is our traditional spring beer debuting every year on the Thursday before Palm Sunday. Bock is German for goat and the beer is named for that traditional Easter feast of roast goat. We use German Pilsner & Canadian Honey Malt and 60 pounds of New Jersey Clover Honey. It is hopped with German Magnum & Tettnanger. This is a powerful beer & seller so get ELIMINATED if you dare

Also a Gravitar IPA

GRAVITAR Seasonal IPA:
 Just in time for the winter doldrums comes GRAVITAR, an aggressively hopped IPA that increases the earth’s gravitational pull by exact 34.2%, according to our estimable brewmaster. It’s got something to do with the experimental hop variety HBC 342 we used — a whopper of hop with citrus, passion fruit, lemon & pineapple notes. There are a mere 15 plants of “342” on the entire earth at the moment… let us know if you like it, maybe they’ll grow more. We sweetened the malt character with honey malt from British Columbia and another sweet aromatic malt from the UK; pale chocolate malt was added for a dash of color. Brewed in honor of the video game console (a.k.a. “Productivity Killer”) recently installed in our break room. 7.2% ABV, 90+BU. Available in limited supply at fine beer bars around the Northwest, and at our Taproom for the next month or so.

My original list I'd posted in the shoutbox had been:

Black Widow
Blue Shark
Burgertime
Cloud 9
Double Dragon
Nemesis
Pnickies
Qix
Super Cobra
Xexex

I searched afterwards and it turns out there are several companies with a Black Widow beer, two companies with a Double Dragon Beer, a Nemesis beer, and a Cloud 9 Brewery:

Arkanoid Ale (session ale) or Arkanoid Brick Breaker (canned stout with nitroball)
APB Ale - Ale with cherries and berries
Black Tiger - Black IPA
Stocker Stout - Barrel-aged collaboration of awesomeness featuring a contribution from each state found in the game
Pandora's Palace - Krystal Weiss or a sour aged in wine barrels for the grapes in the game
Donpachi Doppelbock - With a touch of honey for the bees in the game
Head-On Lite - A crappy light beer that you know you will be forced to drink once a year or so
Bubble Bobble - So many options for what this could be, but the name itself is already perfect for a beverage of some sort
Windjammer Wheat
Monkey Milk - DK-themed, bourbon barrel-aged milk stout

Great idea for a thread. We will have to vote on the best ones or something.
