Pretzel-Crusted Beer Caramels

A little salty, a little sweet, you might want to make an extra batch of these luscious, Scotch ale-infused caramels to stash away for yourself.

Apricot Saison Mascarpone Tart With Belgian Ale Balsamic Glaze

A saison’s lemony, spicy notes add levity to creamy mascarpone and tangy apricots; a drizzle of Belgian ale-infused balsamic glaze sends this picnic-perfect dessert over the top.

Frozen Pumpkin Pie Spiced Latte

Level up a perennial fall favorite, the pumpkin latte, with a decadent twist.

Berliner Weisse Peach Cobbler

A tart, vibrant Berliner weisse punches up this classic cobbler’s biscuit topping—bonus points if you use a seasonal fruited version like Dogfish Head Festina Peche. Don’t forget a scoop of ice cream on top.

Chocolate Stout Cream Pie

Stouts are a natural choice for chocolate cream pie, but a chocolate stout really amps up the flavor.

Raspberry Crumb Cake

Perfect for toting to a summer barbecue, this easy-to-bake cake relies on a one-two punch of raspberries, both fresh and from the bottle.

Blueberry Cheesecake Tart

This blueberry beer-spiked crust is truly excellent, but if baking isn’t your thing, you can assemble the tart in a store-bought graham cracker crust.

Black Forest Sundaes

Sour beer and cherries team up to make a delectable sauce for these sinful sundaes.

Tart, green Granny Smiths steeped in beer hold their own in this gorgeous tart that’s simpler than it looks.

Brown Ale Pumpkin Pie Bars

A caramely brown ale in these spiced-up bars will make you forget all about pie.

Honey and Hefe Pound Cake with Beer Orange Curd

A zippy hefe gives this pound cake some oomph; the beer teams with orange for a curd you’ll want to spoon on everything.

Lager-Battered Apple Fritters with Five-Spice Sugar

Bathe Granny Smith rings in beer batter, fry and dust: Dessert is served.

Roasted Apple Pie Ice Cream

A cider syrup and real apples give this ice cream a double dose of apple flavor.

Blueberry-Basil Mead Pops

Even frozen, your favorite mead's flavor shines in these fruity, herbed-up ice pops.

Cherry Chocolate Chip Ice Cream

A Belgian-style kriek drives the flavor here, so seek out Lindemans or a similarly sweet cherry lambic and take advantage of its intense cherry essence.

Had to stop in for a flight at the new @torchedhopbrewing. Definitely try out Blue's Clues (the pink one): It's a velvet-smooth
Scenes from @sheltonbrothers The Festival: Bottles of @jesterkingbrewery Atrial Rubicite await the coming horde.
You better believe we'll be at @sheltonbrothers' The Festival, which begins tonight. But first, a stop at Atlanta beer darling @scofflawbeer to scope their buzzed-about IPAs and killer chalk art.
@burialbeer and @jwakefieldbeer both know their way around a good stout; their powers combined resulted in something both cosmic and divine. Additions of chocolate, salted caramel and toasted pecans lend the imperial milk stout a dessertlike but approachable flavor brimming with candied nuts, fig jam and chocolate truffles, while a barely-there burst of charred malt at the swallow tempers the fruits and sugars, leaving behind flavors of burnt pecan pie crust.
Introducing @indybrewing Revolución, a saison purpose-built to be the perfect pairing for tacos. We can't argue with results: The beer's raw wheat character harmonizes with the tortilla while flavors of lemon blossoms, white peppercorns and almost-tart citrus spice up the meat filling as well as any marinade.
April showers bring May flowers, as they say, but Citra Showers? Those bring THE NOISE. Smooth and tropical, @noblealeworks' single-hopped double IPA pelts the tongue with mown grass and cantaloupe before a deluge of Orange Julius, mango pulp and juicy papaya arrives. A base of glazed breakfast pastries supports the fruit flavors until the palate-clearing booze and bitterness of the finish washes it all away.
🚨PSA: This year's @fortgeorgebeer 3-Way IPA (a collab with @greatnotionpdx and @reubensbrews) is on tap at Reuben's and tonight's Seattle weather is made for drinking outside🚨
You know what’s better than chicken fried and cold beer on a Friday night? Chicken, fried, *in* a cold beer on a Friday night. @theveilbrewing and @eviltwinbrewing can deliver: They brewed this IPA with a couple trays of chicken tenders added directly into the mash. Though they didn’t actually use enough meat to impact the flavor, they did make a rock-solid beer brimming with orange marmalade on toasted wheat, leafy green hops and hints of grilled pineapple. Pair it with sweet tea, pecan pie, homemade wine and a pair of jeans that fit just right.
