A Portland-based brewery recently launched a Kickstarter campaign for a micro-brew that is infused with the natural flavor of hemp. Although many people associate hemp with cannabis, hemp-based products are free from THC. This beer provides the rich taste of hemp without the effects of marijuana.
The hemp-based beer is an amber ale that has been infused with the natural taste of hemp. The beer itself is brewed with hemp water, which gives it a unique earthy taste. The hemp used in the beer is supplied by a local hemp farm and the micro-brew is produced by a local Portland brewery.
While the hemp-based beer is still just a concept, the company is current raising funds to bring the unique amber ale to consumers.
