Now enjoy the taste of BEER while getting your sugar fix!

It's like the candy gods have answered my drunken prayers for bite-sized morsels of brew-tastic nectar flavored sugar substitute. Why these are the things I pray for, I'll never know.

Jelly Belly is introducing Draft Beer flavored Jelly Beans! Now I don't have to be ashamed for eating jelly beans with my pizza… my pretzels… my chicken wings… or even while I'm hiding out in my garage avoiding my family because my wife has a to-do list a mile long that needs to be done this instant. Hold on a minute, dear. I'm having a jelly bean snack. And, no, I haven't been drinking. 



After watching this video, all I can think is, "HOLY SHIT!" They were serious? I was expecting John C. Reilly to be the "Research and Development Specialist" in the last interview segment to really take things over the top. Unfortunately, this did not happen.


I've got to give Jelly Belly credit though. That glass of jelly beans sure looks refreshing. I wonder what would happen if you pounded the whole glass and chased it with a frosty pint? No need for chewing. I imaging the candy coating works much like that of an aspirin. Once those bad boys break down in your stomach and mix with all that swishy-swirly barley and hops, HOLD ON! Instant-rock-&-roll-sweet-child-o-mine-super-party-buzz!!! Followed by an intestinal cleansing explosion that would make Mount St. Helens blush. That's how you get the job done, Jelly Belly. Thank you for sharing.  

And is it just me, or did you think everyone in the video was a wee bit intoxicated as well? Below I present Exhibits A-C. Anyways, I hope they didn't eat all the jelly beans. I'm feeling parched. 
















Thanks for reading the latest Official Beer Glove product review and drunken rant. I'm heading down to the research lab now to see if we can develop gloves that make it easier to eat jelly beans. Cheers!
