Now on tap at the Martin House taproom in Fort Worth, Best Maid Sour Pickle Beer is a thing. And we’re not disappointed. Those who love pickles will agree. This collaboration between two Texas brands is a sweet dill… ’er, deal.

Martin House Brewing Company, makers of Best Maid Sour Pickle Beer, use a sour beer base mixed with sour pickle juice direct from Best Maid Pickles. When combined, it creates a brew that is not only dill-icious (sorry, couldn’t help ourselves) but is also a tart drink sensation which is sure to please! Starting August 13, 2019, the beer will be distributed throughout the state, and it’s said to be only a Texas thing. It contains 5.5 percent alcohol and is bound to make the rest of America “green” with envy! Nice touch, huh?

As part of this cool Fort Worth alliance, Best Maid is releasing its own Salty Lady Beer Pickles. This celebration of the pickle is a tribute to the popular Salty Lady brew (gose, a warm fermented beer with origins in Goslar, Germany) by Martin House, revelling in its fifth anniversary on September 14, 2019. To complement the beer, the Best Maid company incorporated its sour pickle juice with some lemon zest, coriander, and salt to create this unique complement to their namesake beer. These Salty Lady Beer Pickles are said to be available in stores in approximately two weeks, while the Best Maid Sour Pickle Beer is now available on tap at Martin House, located at 220 S. Sylvania Avenue. A huge party celebrating the release of these iconic dill deals will be happening on August 17, 2019, from 12 to 5 p.m. Tickets are priced at $12 for those 21 and over, which includes a pint glass from Best Maid and Martin House Brewing Company, as well as four pours.

I love beer but I'm just not feeling it for that one.

Maybe I'm wrong, but that doesn't sound like it'd do it for me.

Pickle juice backer is amazing......

Haven’t tried the beer yet.

I love pickle juice.

Where to find it, Rog.

haven't seen it around here.

A little isn't bad in a bloody Mary if you're out of olive juice.

I'm in.

I like pickles and have tried pickle beer. This is some nasty stuff.

My Bloody Mary secret ingredient is a mix of sweet and dill pickle juice (50/50). One part pickle juice, two parts vodka, and fill with Mr T's Spicy mix. For my own, I also add a wee bit of horseradish, but when I bartend I leave that out.

I'd be delighted to try Pickle Beer, but doubt it would be a regular thing with me. A good regular ale or lager is all I need - and no damn "light" beer.

Sounds like it belongs in the same category as cucumber flavored vodka to me.

I used to like some lime and salt in my beer.

Not so sure about "pickles" though...

At times I like pickles with my beer, but there are many flavors of pickles. Why the hell would anyone let someone else determine which one they should have with their beer?

It’ll appeal to the same folks that liked those nasty assed pickle juice snow cones as a kid. 🤮

This sounds like something created by a pregnant woman having a craving.

UH! NO!

LOL

I remember those!

They'll make ya squirt if you have more than one.

Thanks Ricky.

Sipping a McClures Bloody Mary on the mountain as I type. Their staple is pickles. None better.

Prolly be good.

I like best maid pickles. Have to bootleg them into MS.

Tried a couple gose beers. Watermelon and lemon. Kinda a salty taste.
