Big Red Beer is Here

I love me some Big Red. There is just something about that red soda that just makes me happy. Now that I hear a Big Red beer is out now, I really want to try one or six.

Islla St. Brewing in San Antonio has created Big Rojo, a Big Red inspired beer. It is described on the Instagram page, eldereats, as a sour beer but also with a candy taste to it. They also say if you are not a fan of sour beers, this is one that you should try anyway.

I love the imagination these breweries will put into making their beers. I tried one at last year's Dogtoberfest in downtown Tyler that was a funnel cake flavored beer. I know, I had hesitations about it, too. I tried it and loved it. I can't recall which brewery had it, though. I took some bad notes that day.

P.S., these guys are obviously Nintendo fans. They have two beers celebrating Super Mario Bros. and Contra. Pretty cool.
