Beer and ice cream – the combination of both may seem a bit odd to you. As an avid fan of both products, I can tell you that I would not even dream of combining the two of them together (I’m sure there was that one time in college, but really – I’d never think of it). What’s even weirder? Beer flavored ice cream. However, there are many individuals who try to make their own at home. Well the folks at Frozen Pints Ice Cream took this concept to a whole other level.
It all started with a moment of inspiration, according to the guys at Frozen Pints. While they received some weird looks from fellow beer lovers, the company realized their passion for beer ice cream.
So how much beer do they actually put in the ice cream? The team says it varies from flavor to flavor. They say that you may be saddened to hear (or glad) that it would take several pints for you to feel any buzz from consuming the product.
The company makes sure that even though it mixes and matches flavors, it never masks the taste of beer. We’ve put together their list of flavors below, which also can be found on their site:
|
Peach Lambic: |
European sophistication meets southern comfort. The lightest of our options, juicy peaches and a lingering tartness combine for an almost champagne-like finish. You’ve had peach ice cream, but never like this. |
|
Honey IPA: |
Hopheads rejoice! A classic American IPA showcases strong hop flavors that are tempered with a local honey. The result? A full, well-balanced flavor laced with floral notes. Bitter sweet perfection. |
|
Brown Ale Chip: |
A traditional Brown Ale brings hints of roasted hazelnuts, and sweet milk chocolate chips do what they do best. It’s an experience you’ll want to repeat time and again. |
|
Cinnamon Espresso Stout: |
Wake up your taste buds with this bold flavor. Robust coffee, oak and vanilla flavors abound; Vietnamese cinnamon ties it all together. As complex as it is delicious. |
|
Vanilla Bock: |
This is the one that started it all. A complex Bock paired with Madagascar vanilla. The hints of banana, dark fruit and cloves in this sweet cream will make your taste buds sing. |
|
Malted Milk Chocolate Stout: |
For the chocaholics… this creamy chocolate stout is enhanced with rich malted milk in a simple yet satisfying blend. Short and sweet. |
The company only recently launched and the ice cream is only available at certain events in the Atlanta, GA area. We think this small idea could get pretty big…do you?
Your Choice. Your Beer. Drink Up.
