Craft Beer Slushies & Soft Serve Beer
Tis the Season!
Radiant Beer Co. offers delicious frozen treats on a seasonal basis and as of May 17th we are bringing back frozen treats for the 2024 season (Friday – Sunday).
Our beer slushie and soft serve beer flavor selections are ever-changing, and range from pastry stouts to fruity tarts, smoothie-style sours to dessert-like specialties.
Come visit us in Anaheim and follow us on social media to see more of our delicious concoctions on Instagram.
What is a beer slushie?
A beer slushie is our beer served from a frozen slushie machine. Think of it like a Slurpee, Icee, or frosé, but that base is actually beer, chilled to perfection. Our slushies are typically just straight beer, but as some styles can change flavor once they are super cold, we may add agave syrup or additional purees to some slushie releases to achieve a frozen flavor that is closer to how the beer would taste as a regular draft pour.
What is soft serve beer?
Soft serve beer is exactly that – beer, frozen into soft serve format. Our soft serve is just the beer itself with a proprietary, vegan, gelling agent that helps it keep its form. Like our slushies, we sometimes sweeten our soft serve beer, in order to ensure the flavor is closer to the beer if it were in regular liquid form. When we consume frozen or very cold treats, our taste receptors are dulled a bit.
Is it beer ice cream?
No. There is no dairy added, and it is created differently than ice cream because it is not cream based and is just our beer frozen to soft serve format (which means yes, it does contain alcohol, just like if you drank a beer). We love beer-flavored ice cream, but that’s a different delight.
Is it vegan / dairy-free / gluten-free?
Most of our base beers are vegan and dairy-free, but some special treatments may include additions of ingredients that are not (such as marshmallows). Each beer varies, so if you have dietary restrictions, please ask our friendly staff to confirm this answer on a case-by-case basis. Our beer is not gluten-free.
