Ünnecessary: BRÖÖ Craft Beer Shampoo

This was sent to us by Friend of the Ümlaut Don, who did The Robot in this Beer Circus vid, while in Asheville, NC.

BRÖÖ is a shampoo that uses craft beer as a magical ingredient. I assumed they’d use Asheville Brewing (makers of Moog Beer), but it’s actually St. Terese’s Pale Ale from Highland Brewing. Apparently, using beer in shampoo not only provides opportunity for unnecessary umluats and beer puns (eg “a clean head“), it really does clean like nobody’s business.

But BRÖÖ is not the first.
