AUSTRALIA - Sure you’ve maybe had a hard cider or a fruit beer or two, but have you had an Avocado Beer? If this sounds as amazing to you as it does to me, you might just want to catch a quick plane to the other side of the world—Australia.

An Australian brewery located just south of Perth has taken their local fruit, the avocado, and turned it into a beer thats getting rave reviews throughout the region.

This isn't the first fruit-flavored beer that owner and operator of Bush Shack Brewery, Danial Wind, has created either. A peek at the brewer’s menu reveals a Chili Beer, a Strawberry Blonde beer that uses real strawberries, and a Twisted Lemon Larger that uses real lemons.

Wind’s avocado experiment, however, came courtesy of his state's inaugural Avocado Festival last month. After receiving great reactions from his customers, a bigger batch was planned and the brewery received 161 avocados from a local grower. 

"We've been going through a keg of it a week here," Wind explained to Australian news source ABC News. "Based on peer group pressure and public opinion we will be making more of it."

The avocados give a bitter and more subtle hoppy flavor to the beer, while also maintaining a smooth and creamy finish, but Wind says even with all the beer’s success, he still expects it to remain a niche product.

"I don't see it as being a beer that people would drink every day," Mr Wind said. "It is very full in flavour and most of your every-day beer drinkers prefer something a bit lighter in flavour." 

Could this be your new favorite way to up your fruit intake? You might need to take a trip to Australia to find out.
