Think you've tried some off-the-wall beers?
The list below is impressive, it might even intimidate. However you see it, you’re going to want to add these WEIRD beers to your Collab Fest plan!
The teams at Fiction Beer & Two22 brewed up a concoction that might make you wonder if you’re drinking a beer or a vegetable fusion health drink.
“Pinky Swear” is a beet and mushroom Belgium Blonde Ale with pink oyster mushrooms and roasted beets.
Cotton Candy, Potato & Cocktail inspired beers will all be making an appearance at Collab Fest. Read on to see ALL of the creativity brewers are bringing this year!
"The use of EKG and Nugget hops and a slight Rye malt addition enhance the earthy flavors of the mushrooms and beets. It’s a walk in the woods in beer form and a definite must-try at Collaboration Fest!"
