    Greenbush Brewing made one for the Michigan Brewers Guild Fall Beer Festival. They ran out in under an hour.

    Hahahahah. Did you drink it? With a dog?
    Can't even joke about ingredients any more. It's all been done.
    Thanks for the info!
    Cheers

    Dandelions taste awful in the real world. But they work quite well in Vera Mae. That, and horse blanket... though I've never tried gnawing on one before.

    I didn't go to the first day of the festival and it was long gone before the second day. To be honest though, there's no way I would have tried it anyway, haha. It was called "I Think We Have a Weiner – Chicago-Style Hot Dog Beer"

    I love bitter beer, and there are lots of bitter italian sodas and other drinks that I really like, but I'm not really a fan of bitter veggies except perhaps bitter green peppers.

    As others have said I hate grapefruit, but love a IPA or APA with a big grapefruit profile. I even tryed to convince myself that maybe I like grapefruit the other day and had some juice at work. Nope, terrible

    On the other side of the spectrum, my girlfriend loves coffee, but hates beers with coffee or coffee flavors. Works out better for me. Keep ya damn hands off ma stouts!

    The easy ones - licorice, ginger, clove, tobacco, raisins, figs, prunes. Love 'em all in the right beer. Can't stand them anywhere else. I've seen olives listed. I hate olives, but for me, diacetyl smells and tastes like olive brine, so I can't handle it in beer, either.

    Odder - I REALLY hate peaches and apricots. Like, I become qeasy when cutting them up for my kids hate them. But I once had an apricot pale ale from England (don't remember the name), and the apricot worked PERFECTLY with the grassy herbal British hops. It was probably 10 years ago and I still remember it distinctly...

    You like band-aid in your beer? Gross.

    Great question. Grapefruit, licorice, dark fruitiness, earthy barnyard/musky flavors

    You like the taste of band-aid, but hate it in beer? Or the other way around?

    For me, I like the following flavors, but don't want them in my beer:

    - Onion
    - Soy sauce

    Going the other way, I can't think of any. "Horse blanket" is more of a smell that a flavor.
