Unique Drink Combines Brunch Flavors With Beer

By Paul Huesgen
FlatBranch cheers

This cocktail-beer fusion is unique to our brewery and has been a cult classic for more than 30 years. It is all nose and finish. The beer’s light spice and robust flavor come from 50 pounds of Anaheim peppers added during fermentation for its signature chili flavor. We also add three pounds of jalapenos and one and a half pounds of serrano peppers to give this brew a touch of heat.

Paul Huesgen is the general manager of Flat Branch Pub & Brewing.
