Lobster in the Beer??? Oxbow brewing a beer made with lobsters

Oxbow Brewing is offering a quicker way to consume two of the Maine’s summertime staples: beer and lobster. The brewer is producing beer made with live Maine lobsters and a dash of sea salt. Brewmaster Tim Adams says the lobsters were placed in a mesh bag and suspended in a kettle full of boiling wort, the liquid made from the mashing process, during brewing. He says the lobsters add a subtle brininess and sweetness that lobster fans will recognize. It is 4.5 percent alcohol by volume and is available on a limited basis. The beer became available this summer. Link photo 10:33
