Beer Kissed Carmel Sauce Set
Not all that is beer, needs to be consumed in a glass as California-based Bouji Baking Company understands better than most. Hand-crafted in Humboldt County, this brilliant set offer up four different caramel sauces each tempered by a different craft beer, the Chocolate Stout sauce pairs caramel and cacao with Bison Brewing Chocolate Stout; Raspberry Lambic adds tart notes from Six Rivers Brewery Raspberry Lambic; Honey Basil Ale features aromatic notes of Bison Brewing Honey Basil Ale; and Scotch Porter gets malty magnificence from Mad River Brewing Steelhead Porter.
Craft Beer Soap 6-Pack
Again not all that is beer, needs to be consumed in a glass, beer can now help you clean up your act! Swag Brewery is now offering an imaginative collection of six different soaps all hand-crafted with great natural ingredients like orange peel, crushed oats, and (of course) real hops. We especially like the Oatmeal Stout Beer Soap, but they’re all rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and amino acid and great for the skin!
