Move over mimosas and bellinis, Champagne isn’t the only sparkling beverage worthy of the brunch table. Fruit beers and ciders boast the same fruity effervescence worthy of washing down your Belgian waffles, chocolate chip pancakes, eggs Benedict, and yes folks, all things bacon!!
On August 23, from 6-7 p.m. CST, join Whole Foods Market and myself as we taste and tweet through an array of fruit beers and ciders, challenging our friends and fans to think outside the typical brunch beverage box. Tweet alongside foodies and beer lovers as the beer-loving community discusses breakfast beer and cider pairings, cooking with beer, and more.
To participate, pick up one or all of the featured fruit beers and ciders and tweet your experience using the hashtag #WFMBeer. Every 15 minutes, the focus of the tasting will shift to a different beverage. The schedule is as follows:
5:00 p.m. PST: Fox Barrel Ginger Blackcurrant
Follow: @FoxBarrel
5:15 p.m. PST: Widmer Marionberry Hibiscus Gose
Follow: @Widmer_Brothers
5:30 p.m. PST: Crispin Honey Crisp Cider
Follow: @CrispinCider
5:45 p.m. PST: MOA Breakfast Beer
Follow: @MOABEER
Even if you don’t have a delicious fruit beer or cider in hand, join the conversation on Twitter. Just don’t forget the hashtag #WFMBeer.
Participation is limited to those 21 years or older.
Recently had a mimosa made with Breckenridge Brewery’s Agave Wheat – might be a reason to switch over entirely! All the booze without the sweetness of champagne.
