Rogue Introduces VooDoo Chocolate, Peanut Butter & Banana Ale
	
          
In 2011, unorthodox Oregon brewery Rogue Ales teamed up with Portland’s VooDoo Doughnut to release Bacon Maple Ale,  a brown ale our reviewer recently described as  having a scent “exactly  like a campfire mixed with a hint of maple syrup.” Though some beer  lovers have called it as an abomination that tastes nothing like actual  beer, the pink-labeled collab has been immensely popular, overall.
Now  Rogue has done it again, “colliding” with VooDoo for a second time to  release Chocolate, Peanut Butter & Banana Ale. Available at most  Rogue Ales Public Houses and also via online ordering here, the fruit  beer is designed after the donut shop’s “Memphis Mafia” treat. That  creation is made of fried dough filled with banana chunks and topped  with chocolate frosting, peanut butter, peanuts and chocolate chips.  It’s a tribute to Elvis Presley, whose entourage had the same name and  who famously adored peanut butter and banana sandwiches.
Brewmaster  John Maier, who has been a Rogue brewer for 25 years, says on  BeerAdvocate, “I designed the beer to taste as much like the doughnut as  possible!” The beer includes banana and peanut extracts, as well as  chocolate, and has an ABV of 5.3%. It comes in large-format, 25.4-oz.,  pink-painted bottles, similar to the Maple Bacon Ale, and runs $13 each.
