8 Must-Try Microbrews

LAZY MAGNOLIASOUTHERN PECAN NUT BROWN ALE
(Mississippi, Est. Calories: 135, ABV: 4.5%)

This unique ale is made with pecans, used just like grain, to provide a nutty characteristic and a delightful depth to the flavor profile. The beer is very lightly hopped to allow the malty, caramel, and nutty flavors to shine through, and is also rich in antioxidants. “To our knowledge, it is the first beer in the world made with whole roasted pecans,” says Nevins. “It won a bronze medal at the 2006 World Beer Cup in the Specialty Beer category.”
