Hop Obama

We’re thinking that craft beer counts as a craft, right? If you live in New York or Massachusetts, you may be able to track down “Hop Obama,” a craft brew from Sixpoint Craft Ales, a craft brewery from Brooklyn, NY.

Here’s what they have to save about their “Hop Obama” brew:

In keeping with the Illinois senator’s unifying theme, the Hop Obama is an entirely unique ale that doesn’t adhere to traditional style guidelines. The Hop Obama contains five different kinds of European crystal malt and three different kinds of Pacific Northwest hops. Combined with a Scottish yeast strain for fermentation, the result is a highly drinkable beer with a big malt background and an “Obama” of hops that imparts floral and citrus notes with just a hint of spiciness. Fused from an incredibly diverse background, the flavors are individually unique, but gain their solidarity from their indivisibility. Although we do not intend this beer to be a direct Sixpoint endorsement of Obama, we believe the delicious and refreshing quality it represents reminds us of the Senator’s successful grassroots campaign that positively blossoms each and every day.

Let us know if you spot a bottle of this brew! We’d love to have a picture…
