#3: Brubar brings a "refreshing" new approach to energy bars...

4/18/2012

 
Picture
    While eating an energy bar on a trip to buy home brewing supplies near his home in Davis, CA, Chris D'Souza, Brubar founder, had an epiphany. Realizing that energy bar flavors are sometimes reminiscent of those found in specialty beers (coconut, chocolate, apricot), Chris thought it would be interesting to put beer flavors into an energy bar.  

    After many attempts, Chris decided to ditch the "beer" bar.  However, an amazingly malty energy bar survived by using the natural sweetener derived from the barley grain. The rich, smooth taste is not overly sweet and is truly original.
  
 
    Brubars are available in 4 flavors: Cherry Almond, Apricot, Oatmeal Raisin, and Original Malt. 

What we liked:
   The Cherry Almond Brubar tastes smooth and sweet without being overdone.  It has a wholesome, natural look and a chewy consistency without being sticky. Comments from our taste panel included "tastes sweet but not too sweet, good texture", "satisfying", "chewy and moist", "not sticky", and "looks wholesome".


Ingredients:

      Malt extract, rolled oats, dates, cherries, almonds, coconut, olive oil, almond extract, baking soda, cinnamon

Allergen info: 
     Contains almonds and coconut. Manufactured in a plant that also processes milk, eggs, tree nuts, peanuts, and soy.

I love this energy bar! I also love that there's 4 grams of fiber and 6 grams of protein! :P
