Game Of Thrones Season 4 Will Be 'Action-Filled': Kit Harington Teases Scripts As New Beer Line Celebrates HBO Series

As "Game of Thrones" begins filming for season 4, cast member Kit Harington is proclaiming the upcoming episodes to be a "really powerful season."

"I'm not doing the actor thing of saying 'each season is brilliant' because I have to," promises Harington. "It's very action-filled. Last season was a big impact season, this season is very action-packed. On paper it looks incredible, whether we can pull it off...who knows!"

"I've just finished reading [the script] and I genuinely think it's my favorite one so far."

And how will Harington celebrate his character Jon Snow living through yet another bloody season?

Perhaps with the new line of beers being released in September by Brewery Ommegang.

"With the second beer we wanted a big, substantial brew, something that would stick to your ribs and sustain you through long nights at watch on the Wall," says brewmaster Phil Leinhart according to LA Times.

"A 7 % ABV stout with Northern Brewer hops, Midnight wheat, roasted barley, and chocolate malt made a perfect foundation for the beer.  We also used uncommon spicing, something Ommegang is well-known for."

The new beer, called Take the Black Stout, is a followup "Game of Thrones" brew to the company's first line, Iron Throne.

In addition to enjoying some time off from filming, Kit Harington will also have to read more of the George R.R. Martin books.

"I now need to catch up myself, as we're catching up to where I've read to in the books. We're on a whole new journey now. There's a big divide in the books. And if we get to Season 5, it will all get even more complicated. So I'm enjoying the journey."
