The Pop with Hop

Thanks to a bill sponsored by Del. Adam Ebbin (D-Alexandria) and Sen. Patsy Ticer (D-Alexandria) that amended the ABC’s law on alcohol content in prepared foods, Rustico will sell its summer brew pops as of tomorrow, the first day of summer.

After last year’s brouhaha, the news is sweet relief. Priced at $5 a pop, the icy treats come in seven flavors: Framboise, Cherry Kriek, Peche, Cassis, Banana, Plum and Chocolate Stout.
