We usually only have one beer soap on hand at a time, and for the Christmas season it was most appropriate to choose the ever-so-popular Hardywood Park Craft Brewery's Gingerbread Stout.
Dynamo actually came up with the idea for this batch, which incorporates these adorable gingerbread men into each bar! He's quite clever don't you think?
When Dynamo went to pick up the beer, the guy in the store said that making soap with this awesome beer wasn't so strange after all. Apparently people have been making cakes with it too!! I know to many of you die hard beer drinkers it's quite the sin to use perfectly wonderfully delicious beer for soap, but I promise you, it's awesome!
We used all beer instead of water in our traditional recipe that you all know and love; added some coffee grounds for exfoliation, and worked our magic to make it smell like hazelnuts and toffee. It really is yummy! Good enough to eat!
Did I mention this soap is non-alcoholic too?!?!?
Also...many people pick up our beer soaps and expect them to smell like beer. Guess what? They don't. Each one has a very unique smell and we try to make them appeal to everyone.
You can find our G-Men Beer soap at The Bucket Trade in Chester!
