Grizzly Growler: Sports Recovery Beer

I’m not huge on the name, though it is fitting for this beer. Kettlehouse, it seems, has concocted a brew that is designed to go along with your active lifestyle.

Sports Recovery Beer is a light, caffeine-infused ginseng concoction that is designed to augment your activities rather than inhibit them. Not that beer inhibits things, but a couple Doublehauls can make me want to take a nap on the couch rather than mow the lawn.

I tried the SRB on Friday, and it is a great warm-weather beer. My buddy Al poured me a sample before I could tell him I’m caffeine intolerant, but the beer was very tasty with a bready, yeasty dryness and a chewy malt spine. The caffeine, which Al says is a little more than a Pepsi, but less than a Pepsi Max, hit me when I got home, but what’s a few hours of tossing and turning when you’re having fun and drinking good beer.

I am curious what you might think of this beer though. Whether you’ve tried it or not, let me know what you think of the idea of beers that incorporate the same ingredients as other health-minded products. You know the drill.

Prost,

GG
