That beer in you fridge is good for a lot more than drinking.

It takes a year like this one to remind us how great we really had it in 2013. Batkid was a hero to San Francisco, our president wasn’t a racist game show host, and we had one of the best television series ever in Breaking Bad, a show that answered the question, what if Hal from Malcolm in the Middle were a meth kingpin in the American southwest?

There’s plenty of mainstream weirdness happening in the beer world. Heineken has a non-alcoholic beer. Bud Light is starting corn syrup wars. Beer drinkers suddenly want low-ABV beers like, ugh, Michelob Ultra. But dig a layer deeper into the realm of craft beer, and some truly wild stuff is happening. Like the use of animal testicles in the brewing process. Here are the three weirdest beers you can find and taste-test—if you dare—in 2019.

Donald Trump has run a lot of businesses into the ground. There was Trump Airlines, Trump Steaks, Trump Mortgages, and Trump University (you probably remember how that one ended), just to name a few.

This cocktail’s name is a mouthful: “Fighter Weapon School, a.k.a Top Gun,” which is a riff on the Paper Plane cocktail, which is a riff on the Last Word. Let’s untangle that. 

There was once a bad time in this country’s history called Prohibition, when hard-working Americans weren’t permitted to quench their thirst with delicious alcoholic beverages.

“Here we have a Canadian walking into an English bar to talk about American gin…”

It makes sense that Napa Valley has a Wine Train that’s been chugging through California’s hills and vineyards since 1864. But sipping wine while scenic views slip by isn’t everyone’s thing. Beer, however—beer is more intriguing.

If the thought of alcohol in a box conjures fuzzy memories of college dorm rooms and games of “slap the bag,” the vintners at Black Box Wines might have triggered more than a few flashbacks with their latest announcement: Boxed whiskey, boxed vodka, and boxed tequila have hit shelves in several states, with many more to come.
