Dogfish Brewery

Posted by Andrew |

Dogfish Head Craft Brewed Ales is creating a new kind of brew... from corned chewed by humans. If I were still in DC, I think I just may go to Deleware to try this brew...

The article can be found here.

Excerpt:

SAM CALAGIONE, the founder of Dogfish Head Craft Brewed Ales, has a taste for exotic brews. There is Midas Touch, created from sediment found on drinking vessels in the tomb of King Midas in Turkey, and Chateau Jiahu, inspired by trace ingredients from a 9,000-year-old dig in China.

But his latest seemed extreme, even for an extreme brewer. He planned on making a batch of chicha, a traditional Latin American corn beer.

And in order to follow an authentic Peruvian method as closely as possible, the corn would be milled and moistened in the chicha maker’s mouth.

Andrew, if you ever take a sip of that beer.... I'll never kiss you again!

Respectfully, and threateningly posted,

Oh, Emily. Gag me with a spoon. The thought is beyond words. And think about all the viral possibilities, especially when taken to a huge commercial level... UUUUUUg! Somethings, though they exist, ought not to be. LOL
