Dude, we covered this topic in the chatroom hours ago. PKU.

 

[insubordinateK]

Someone didn't do their marketing homework. Drinking a craft beer endorsed by Hanson called 'mmmhop'?

People have been known to get their a$$ kicked for much less.

 

[two_hearted]

aren't they Mormons?

 

[KayaBrew]

aren't they Mormons?

You're thinking of the Osmonds!

 

[nilswhite]

Think the IPA will be as good as the song?

I guess hansen is brewing a beer. Just when you thought you'd never have that awful song in your head again. I guess it comes out early 2012. Who know it might be good.

 

[born3z]

Heard about this today... Their music is so terrible, I don't know if I'll be able to get myself to try it... Or even want to.

 

[Mongrel]

Read about this on another forum, this could be the death of the IPA.

Relax, guys. It's just another in a long list of products they're trying to sell to their developmentally-challenged fan base. Of course, it could end up being really good --in which case I'd have to pay them their due. The whole point is brewing better beer, right?

Right. I hate that song but if the beer is good then its good and ill try it. Im not sure who is brewing it though, I hope its not ab.

Can't wait till they start doing lagers. MmmBock!

 

[Zamial]

This is one of the signs of the coming zombie apocalypse.

 

[Homercidal]

Damn! They stole the name of next IPA! I was going to put their pretty faces on the label and everything!

couldn't help post it, hopefully I'm not starting an already existing thread

Fess Parker made killer wine, I don't see why these guys can't make a decent beer.

 

[JoshuaWhite5522]

at least they are shooting for an IPA and not some corn fed light lager......

You are. But, that's okay. I live in OKC and only just heard about this on radio this morning.

It was said that it will be brewed in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Makes me wonder if they are actually brewing it themselves or contracting with Marshal brewing. I have not read the article.

 

[Revvy]

AN IPA? Cool!

I never thought I'd ever hear myself say this, but Hanson Rocks.

Maybe Nelson will follow and do a Barleywine or something.

 

[maffewl]

I'd pop the tippy top.

 

[zepolmot]

And they're making beer!!mmmhop

 

[unionrdr]

Yeah,I saw that. It's an IPA...next year,I think they said.

 

[Airborneguy]

This is what, the 7th thread about this beer now?

 

[the_bird]

Are they finally 21? Is that what took them so long?

 

[unionrdr]

I tend to think they're jumping on the band wagon with Pearl Jam's beer that they & Sony did with Sam at DFH called "Ten".

 

[TwoWheeler]

They couldn't get Zima anymore, so they resorted to creating their own brand?

 

[Lancer033]

I don't know if i'll ever drink an IPA again. I'll bet your balls fall off with the 1st sip.

So I thought Kid Rock’s Badass Redneck Lager was humorous but when our systems administrator John sent me this article detailing how nineties pop brothers Hanson will release their own brand of beer, I couldn’t help but giggle.

Maybe it’s the bubblegum pop influence or maybe it’s the fact that they’re naming the beer "MMMHop" after their sickly sweet 1997 hit song "MMMBop" but either way, I think it’s comical. Am I entertained enough to actually try the stuff? I just might be.

Back in June, Hanson was actually here in Buffalo for a radio station concert and I ended up seated next to the brothers and singer-songwriter Michelle Branch at my favorite local beer bar, Blue Monk, after their show. Maybe they are that into beer? Maybe it will actually be good? Maybe it will taste better if you listen to the Middle of Nowhere album while you drink it? Only time will tell.

 

[aseg]

wow. the world is ending!

 

[peterpants]

There's a chance that since they already have capital (assuming the record companys haven't taken every penny) they could build their own micro-brewery, have their own brew-pub to attract their fans, etc...

I think I might make an IPA next, just because of this news.

 

[WhineinAlbany]

Wonder if they're getting Dogfish to make it?
