If you’re like countless beer drinkers and bar owners around the world, you already know that a cold glass of beer and a salty bowl of peanuts are a killer combination. Leave it to the venerable peanut pushers at Planters to combine the two in a single can.
Brewed in partnership with the Noon Whistle microbrewery in Lombard, Illinois, the new Mr. IPA-Nut Beer employs both Wakatu and Citra hops to capture a pleasantly bitter and citrusy flavor that shouldn’t come as a huge surprise to inveterate IPA drinkers. The hint of honey-roasted taste and slightly salty finish, however, is something else entirely.
Brewed with approximately 800 pounds of genuine Planters nuts, each batch of Mr. IPA-Nut Beer delivers a light soupçon of peanut overtones that promises to please and not to overpower.
Intrigued? Well, you had better hurry to your favorite Illinois liquor store. This brew will only be available within state lines and will likely be gone by Thanksgiving.
