Just in Time for Lent to End....
Put this in your Easter basket and gulp it: A Texas brewery
has announced the release of a Peeps-infused beer in time for Easter. It’s
called Peep This Collab, and it’s a collaboration between Forth Worth’s
Collective Brewing Project and Lone Star Taps and Caps, a bar that bills itself
as “craft beer heaven.” Coincidence? We think not.
Peep This Collab is a sour ale brewed with 30 boxes of Peeps
candy, along with vanilla, and butterfly pea flower (for coloring). It’s the
purple, sparkly beer of your dreams, if your dreams usually include bird-shaped
marshmallows in bright colors.
The “homage to that polarizing marshmallow candy,” as the
brewery calls it, is the tart, lemony, marshmallowy glitter beer that’s missing
from your adult Easter basket. Oh yeah, there’s edible glitter in it. Duh.
Haven’t you heard glitter beer is a thing?
“I’ve been on a kick to assert beer should be a fun thing,”
Ryan Deyo, Collective Brewing Project co-founder and head brewer, said in an
interview. “We make a beer with ramen noodles, so Peeps isn’t really a
stretch.”
The beer will be released at the brewery on Friday, and at
Lone Star Taps and Caps in Forth Worth and Lewisville on Saturday, Guide Live
reports. After that, peep it at BrainDead Brewing in Deep Ellum, Craft Pride in
Austin , and Hops Meet Barley in Houston the first week in April. Then, maybe
go pray.
