(WHDH) — Planters is stepping into the ever-evolving craft beer world, partnering with Chicago’s Noon Whistle Brewery to launch a new brew for National American Beer Day.

**SNIP**

Mr. IPA-Nut has is said to have a unique citrus aroma with a hint of honey-roasted peanuts and a slightly salty finish.

“It would have been easy to make a great Stout or Porter with nuts, but Planters wanted to prove that nuts go great with any style beer,” Noon Whistle Brewing owner Michael Condon said. “Therefore, we took their Honey Roasted Peanuts and made a great IPA that highlights both hops and peanuts.”

The new brew is available in 4-packs of 16oz. cans for $9.99. It will be available in select stores starting Oct. 27.

Looks like the Chicago area only. I would try it.

My cousin owns a microbrewery in Shields MI and they have an awesome peanut flavored craft beer that’s one of their best sellers. I didn’t think I would like it, but I was wrong! Really good!

Peanuts go in RC Cola! Not IPA's!

That’s not a hipster, it’s Ashton Kutcher.

I tried that a couple of times and couldn’t get the peanut butter taste to come through at all. The second time I went way over the amount of powdered peanut butter in the recipe, and still nothing. I ended up with a decent enough porter, so it wasn’t a total loss.

Peanut flavored beer

Brought something to mind that’s off topic but related.

Peanuts and Coca Cola

How many older FREEPERS remember mixing a small bag of salted Planters Peanuts in a small bottle of Coca Cola?

The Peanuts were 5¢ a bag.

Drink a little coke to make some room in the bottle then poor some peanuts in the bottle.

Repeat until bottle and peanut bag are empty.

The fact that I’m allergic to peanuts should give you a clue as to how many six packs I will be buying.

A nickle coke and a nickle bag of peanuts and you had a meal!

That's when having a 6.5 ounce bottle of coke was a treat.

Before the era of the 100 ounce Big Gulp!

Craft beer is a shell game. It’s like...which bar do I show up at this week to try the newest, coolest beer.

This is fine, but there is a real need for a "soft" potato flavored version of Cheetos. Basically a potato chip in substance but in the shape of a Cheeto. I'm putting this out there with no hope of remuneration, simply as a humanitarian gesture. Wise up, ye junkfood lords!

Yeah I’m a lager guy, Coors, Corona, etc. Don’t need to reinvent the wheel with beer. My upgrade is a shot of good reposado tequila
