Sometimes there are food trends that make you think: how do they come up with this? Just when you think you’ve seen it all, another bizarre combination appears. This time it’s Beer Ramen. And yes, that means ramen in a beer mug.

Okay, before all the beer geeks and ramen slurpers rise up to defend the value of their favorite food and drink: don’t panic. Because this isn’t just noodles submerged in beer…

The secret

But what is it, then? Beer Ramen is actually just a beer mug filled with broth made with, among other things, soy sauce, miso and bonito flakes. And that white beer head? That’s whipped egg white with gelatin. Beer Ramen is actually a real summer special, because the broth isn’t served hot, but cold.

Would you still like to have beer with your ramen? Add a splash of your favorite (dark) beer while frying the noodles! Not a Beer Ramen fan? Luckily, you can also just keep slurping the noodles from a bowl.
