The Sixpoint Brewery 3Beans Beer Will Change Your Perspective

— March 5, 2013 — Lifestyle
When one thinks of beer, beans don't automatically come to mind, but beer beans is what Sixpoint Brewery is currently offering to beer connoisseurs around the world.

Bean beers isn't actually that new of a concept according to the founder of Sixpoint Brewery Shane Welch, who states on the company site that "the idea behind the three beans is based upon an ancient formulation in medieval Europe, in Slavic areas, in Baltic areas." He says in those climates, regular brewing grains such as barley and wheat weren't easily accessible, so people had to work with what they had, which were beans.

The 3Beans beer was made with the combined efforts of Sixpoint Brewery, Mast Brothers Chocolate and Stumptown Coffee Roasters. The mixture of romano, coffee and cacao beans is always a welcomed mix.
Trend Themes
1. Bean Beers - Brewers can explore ancient recipes from medieval Europe, Slavic, and Baltic areas to create unique bean beers.
2. Collaborative Brewing - Partnering with other food and beverage companies such as chocolatiers and coffee roasters can lead to innovative beer flavors.
3. Alternative Brew Ingredients - Experimenting with unconventional ingredients such as beans can set beer brands apart in the market and attract adventurous consumers.
Industry Implications
1. Craft Beer Industry - Craft brewers can leverage unique ingredients and collaborations to differentiate themselves from mass-produced beers and appeal to niche consumer preferences.
2. Chocolatier Industry - Chocolatiers can expand their market by partnering with beer brands to create new, complementary products.
3. Coffee Roasting Industry - Coffee roasters can capitalize on consumer trends towards unique flavor combinations by collaborating with brewers to produce coffee-infused beers.
