Mushroom Beers

Wasn't even aware this was a style. That said, I'm actually a little intrigued and would definitely try it.

 

Sign me up!!!!

 

I'm a 'shroom freak. No, not the pyschedelic kind! The kind you eat. Okay, you know what I mean. I welcome a shot at this, even tho it don't sound so good. I love mushrooms on everything. Even by themselves. Pretty trippy.

 

I am a shroomer and I will be supplying the dried morels to make a mushroom porter at Mill House Brewpub, in Poughkeepsie, New York. Still haven't tried any of the ones mentioned in article, but really want to.

 

Here's one I'll be trying soon. Only draft available for now. Haw River Farmhouse Ales Mushroom Brown Ale with reishi and maitake mushrooms. A collaboration with Deep River Brewing Co. I hope to be in Saxapahaw this week to try it at the brewery. Sounds interesting!

Is a truffle a mushroom? Carton's Gilded Lily is brewed with truffle and was pretty damn fantastic. If that's a taste of what beers with mushroom will taste like, I'm in.

 

Yes, truffles are mushrooms:

But you'll have to have it all pulled out, after the Savoy Truffle.

 

I do not have any bitchin' puns or Beatles lyrics for you. I'm just here to say I dig mushroom brews; Epic Ales here in Seattle has a good shiitake one.

I agree that they add a very subtle element to a beer, but earthiness is one of my favorite flavor elements so I'd like to see more of these.

 

Well, if theres two things I like its mushrooms and beer.

 

5 Rabbits Ki'Chun is a great shroom beer, not sure if they are bringing it back this year though

 

Can't wait. Not sure what I'm bring yet.

 

they are not mushrooms they are tubers, a fungi, but not a mushroom, none of a true truffle is above the ground.

I would probably try one, doubt there's mushroom in the market for them to make much of an impact though.

 

I really want to try some of these beers! Hoping it catches on!!

 

The only mushroom beer I've had is Jester King Snorkel.

It's more like a goze than a saison. Pretty good actually. The mushrooms add a nice earthy aspect to the beer.

 

So the morel of the story is mushrooms are pretty versatile. Now run tell you daddy and umami.
