Creamed corn and cool cans courtesy of northern Indiana's Burn 'Em Brewing
I'm still a sucker for a rad can when trying new beers, and this one practically jumped off the shelf as I searched for something to sip over the long weekend. Driving the brews: The folks at Michigan City's Burn 'Em Brewing understand the power of a cool can, and all of their labels feature the distinct skull head designs of artist and musician Max Clarke. Clark, who goes by the stage name Cut Worms, has made dozens of labels for the northern Indiana brewery. Some of my personal favorites are the pro wrestling-themed Hopkick Dropkick and Cuke Nukem, a cucumber IPA that references a controversial video game character from the 90s. Brew of the week: Kreamed Corn, a cream ale brewed with actual creamed corn and wheat malt that boasts a gnarly remix of Grant Wood's American Gothic for its label. 6% ABV. 19 IBU My take: The creamed corn comes through loud and clear right away, providing a sweet aroma, a smooth mouthfeel and a malty taste. Bold, but very drinkable. I see it working best as a standalone beer. The complex and full-bodied flavor means it runs the risk of overpowering whatever snack you pair it with. Yes, but: If you don't like corn — or cream ales — this won't convert you. It doubles down on those elements to deliver an experience for fans of the aforementioned. If you buy: A four-pack from Carmel's Niemann Harvest Market costs $12.
