It’s August. And that means it’s hot. Maybe not as hot as Hell but it sure seems like it some days.
New Braunfels took a Hellish approach to making PKL FKR this month and threw a bunch of spicy peppers in during fermentation. New Braunfels also partnered up with the kids at Off-Rhodes to bring you PKL FKR in cans. They cut up 20lbs of green jalapeños and 2 lbs of red for a special weekend full of spice and sunshine.
PKL FKR is the pickle juice sour wheat beer that New Braunfels brewed as a joke back in 2015. Now that joke’s on them as its been 60-70% of what leaves their little brewery each week.
New Braunfels experimented with aging PKL FKR on various peppers and they found that a balanced heat and spice actually improves the beer overall. It makes it more drinkable, crushable and badassable (this is new human word we learned).
