Last April Fool’s Day, Pizza Hut released a YouTube video debuting its “Pepperoni Pilsner,” brewed with real pepperoni and tomatoes. The joke proved to be inspiration for two Texas breweries, Four Corners Brewing Co. and Intrinsic Brewing, which collaborated on a Pizza Party Beer. The one-barrel batch was brewed “with bready malts, infused with fresh rosemary, basil and oregano and fermented on the warmer side with Four Corners house Saison yeast for an added peppery character.” Pizza Hut was also in on the joke, providing pizza for the release party.
