Message barncatmatt beers 2287 º places 71 º 13:00 Wed 3/7/2012 is tea flavoured beer going to be the next big macro trend? http://www.dailyfinance.com/2012/03/07/tasty-or-absurdi-tea-molson-coors-to-brew-tea-flavored-beer/
Message CharmCityCrab beers 244 º 13:11 Wed 3/7/2012 Depends how it sells, I guess. I don’t have a whole lot of interest, but I might try some if the price is right and I can just get a single somewhere rather than having to risk an entire 6 pack. The fact that it isn’t real tea (and thus has no caffeine) is actually a plus to me- I really try to avoid caffeine, so a beer brewed with coffee or tea is generally not something I’ll consume.
Message JoeMcPhee P beers 12091 º places 543 º 13:15 Wed 3/7/2012 Mill St. here in Toronto makes one - I can’t say I’d drink it all the time, but it’s not terrible.
Message NobleSquirrel beers 3437 º places 209 º 13:22 Wed 3/7/2012 There’s a Yerba Mate beer made at Cumberland in Louisville that is pretty neat. My guess, though, is that this tea flavored "beer" will be more akin to Boston Beer Co.’s Twisted Teas...

Message Quevillon P beers 3376 º places 394 º 18:18 Wed 3/7/2012 I would imagine a tea base IPA/IIPA would be great!
