If you missed the BBC show about Selfridges, the famed British store AND you do not check out FoodBeast.com regularly then you might have missed this tidbit about spreadable beer butter! Yes, that is not a typo.
This is what the Selfridges website tells us, “Beer lovers rejoice, you can now enjoy your favourite tipple with cheeses and bread with Omid dark ale spreadable beer. An ingenious collaboration between an Italian chocolate maker and an Italian beer brewer, the result is a sweet and beer-perfumed jelly with an intense scent and a full-bodied taste. The beer spread provides a unique accompaniment for hors d’oeuvres and cheeses, or even try spread on toast or as a stuffing or garnish for tarts and cakes.”
Usually these beer infused items rarely live up to the hype. You might get some malt notes but there will probably be no hops or the lovely sparkle that makes beer such a joy. But if you must have beer in every aspect of your food life. Then this might be for you.
