3 Dogfish Head’s Grateful Dead Beer


“American Beauty” is a strong pale ale brewed with American hops and barley that will almost certainly have a lawsuit coming after it for its name.

1 Hanson’s Beer


It’s called MmmHop and no, I couldn’t possibly be making that up. The Hanson boys are now in their late 20′s and early 30′s and have teamed up with Marshall Brewing Co. to create this.

Taste/body: Sadly, since this news broke over a year ago, there has been little coverage or updates regarding it. Has this beer gone the way of Hanson’s career? Let’s hope not.
