Beer on a Stick?

At the Minnesota State Fair, it is all about finding food available on a stick. Well now evidently beer wants in on the stick action!

When I was at the Fair, I saw this guy with three cups of beer, on a stick. He was nice enough to allow me to photograph this new phenomenon. He also said that he was pretty popular with it...many people stopping him to ask where he got it.

Summitt Brewing Company is the answer to that question, which was located in the International Baazar at the Fair. Why 3 beers you ask? Well, it is showcasing three of their signature brews. Included are Pale Ale, Oktoberfest and Horizon Red Ale. Your purchase nets you 3, 7oz cups of beer.

So what is the oddest thing you have ever /seen/eaten/drank on a stick?

I was watching ICarly with the kids the other night and in the cafe they were at, a guy was trying to sell them pickles on a stick!

I can only think of a couple of foods and a handfull of treats that I've eaten that were on a stick, but none of them are weird...

That is so cool. MIssy had alligator on a stick this past summer. It was very chewy.
Priscilla (wishing I was in Costa Rica) ~. Sep 15, 2009, 12:48pm EDT
They have that as well, but I have never tried it.
Cindy B. Sep 15, 2009, 12:42pm EDT
I wish I was there right now! =)

Having lived in Minnesota since 1977 and attending the fair almost every year, I think I have seen it all on a stick!!
Priscilla (wishing I was in Costa Rica) ~. Sep 15, 2009, 12:47pm EDT
Yes, if you go to the MN State Fair - you do see it all!
Marilyn M. Sep 15, 2009, 12:54pm EDT

My roommate was making paddle holders like that for a local brew pub about the time I moved here.
Jessie L. Sep 15, 2009, 1:06pm EDT

Sandra H. Sep 15, 2009, 1:22pm EDT
I can't think of anything ususual I've had on a stick.
Vivian P. Sep 15, 2009, 1:42pm EDT
My first thought was a beer Popsicle, Icky LOL
Sue * Sep 15, 2009, 3:04pm EDT
Sort of cool...I still think the deep fried candy bars on a stick are pretty interesting. I've never eaten one.
Kat W. Sep 15, 2009, 3:57pm EDT
Hey, this way your beer doesn't warm up as fast from the heat of your hand and you can carry more than two! LOL, it works for me.
Dagmara H. Sep 15, 2009, 6:07pm EDT
that is cool
JoAnn C. Sep 15, 2009, 6:51pm EDT

the oddest thing I've ever had on a stick? I would have to say alligator (sausage) on a stick.
Janet "Jax" B. Sep 15, 2009, 7:24pm EDT
LOL...love it. I've had fried oreos on a stick and also alligator.
Nancy S. Sep 15, 2009, 7:42pm EDT
In Chinatown they had fried grasshoppers on thin little sticks. No I did not try them. Lol.

That's pretty cool!
Heather ~of the Whippets~ M. Sep 15, 2009, 8:03pm EDT
If it can be put on a stick, they'll find a way to do it at the Minnesota State Fair. :-)
Nana to Seven Cutiepies Sep 15, 2009, 9:50pm EDT
so unique and clever
Karen G. Sep 15, 2009, 10:48pm EDT
I would like a beer popsicle I used to eat city chicken which was pork on a stick.
Stacey *Mamasaid* D. Sep 16, 2009, 11:28am EDT
Wow, that's cool. I think I had a chocolate dipped banana on a stick once...nothing as unusual as beer :)
Monica H. Sep 16, 2009, 11:32am EDT
Well, mine is not very odd. But I love CORN DOGS on a stick.
Monica H. Sep 16, 2009, 11:33am EDT
Oh, when the kids and I went to the Farmers Market the other day, they had Chocolate chip cookies on a stick and I bought two of them for the kids.

The Otoberfest in Germany is famous for their grilled fish on a stick. I've never seen that anywhere else.
Lilith Dorsey Oct 3, 2009, 8:38pm EDT
I don't think i've ever eaten anything that strange on a stick... my ex wanted to make religious popsicles, but he is strange.
Linda B. Oct 3, 2009, 8:56pm EDT
I'd like to try a single bite of a deep-fried candybar on a stick, just to find out what all the fuss is about....but can't countenance spending that much money on something of which I can only have one bite. Any more than that and I'd be yelling for an emergency shot of insulin...
