Keeping track of new music, media and industry news.

While it’s not quite the best beer-related pun we’ve seen recently (that would be the pint of Hoptimus Prime we chanced upon in West London recently), kudos to Hanson for turning their biggest hit into something more than just a bargaining tool to snag tour support slots for Carly Rae Jepsen. The band have actually released a surprising seven studio albums since ‘MMMBop’ hit number one across the globe, but their new brew, MmmHops, is set to be their most satisfying release to date.

The IPA, produced in partnership with craft brewery Mustang Brewing, was launched, appropriately enough, at the premiere for The Hangover III. Hopefully it won’t leave as bad a taste in the mouth as the movie…
