Hops with a kick

It's an almost-gimmicky concept: mixing two popular extravagances. But here, kombucha and craft beer are balanced perfectly in Unity Vibration kombucha ginger beer. The result of this blend, $9.99 for a 22-ounce bottle at Pangaea Two Brews Cafe (2743 Franklin Boulevard), is a seamlessly balanced fermented tea with organic hops and raw ginger root, which makes for a refreshing and champagnelike brew. Another big plus is the surprising 8 percent alcohol by volume content that this beer kicks in. http://unityvibrationkombucha.com.
