Bold Personality-Packed Beers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

White Castle & Evil Genius Beer Company Made 'Main Character Energy'

— April 6, 2023 — Lifestyle
Last year, White Castle teamed up with Evil Genius Beer Company to create a limited-edition tangerine beer called It Hits Different for pairing with burgers, and in 2023, the partnering companies are introducing their second limited-edition brew, Main Character Energy.

Main Character Energy takes the form of a 6% ABV Hazy Kiwi Dragon Fruit IPA with "both Simcoe and Strata hops that add a tropical fruit and zesty citrus character to the beer."

IPAs are known for their strong hoppy flavor and while some love them for their bold taste, others find them too bitter. This twist on the popular India Pale Ale style references the confidence and self-assuredness of a person who feels like the lead in their own story, embracing their unique qualities and strengths.
Trend Themes
1. Personality-packed Beer - Crafting beers with unique flavors and packaging that capture the essence of a person's personality and individuality in a bottle.
2. Limited-edition Beer Collaborations - Partnering with popular brands to create unique and exclusive beers for a limited time, creating excitement and demand from loyal fans and customers.
3. Hazy Ipas with Unique Flavor Profiles - Experimenting with different hop combinations and flavors to create hazy IPAs with a tropical and citrusy twist that appeal to a wider and more diverse audience.
Industry Implications
1. Craft Beer - Opportunities to create new beer products with unique flavors and packaging that stand out in a competitive and growing craft beer industry.
2. Fast Food Chains - Opportunities to collaborate with craft beer companies to create exclusive drink pairings and limited-edition beverages that appeal to a diverse customer base and generate buzz and excitement.
3. Breweries and Taprooms - Opportunities to innovate by experimenting with unique hop combinations and flavors to create hazy IPAs and other craft beers with different flavor profiles that attract a wider range of beer drinkers.
