The Planters Mr. IPA-Nut has been unveiled by the nut snack brand as a new beer for consumers that is crafted with a distinctly unexpected flavor profile for consumers to try out.
The craft beer was created in partnership with the Noon Whistle Brewery and created just for National American Beer Day, which is taking place on October 27. The beer was described by the brand as having a "unique citrus aroma with a hint of honey-roasted peanuts followed by a slightly salty finish," which makes it an on-brand libation for the iconic snack nut company.
The Planters Mr. IPA-Nut will be available for sale starting on the 27th from participating retailers in Illinois as well as at the Noon Whistle Brewery.
