"On January 11, sometime around sunrise, thousands of beer-drinking Floridians began flocking to &lt;a href=\"http://funkybuddhabrewery.com/\"&gt;Funky Buddha Brewery&lt;/a&gt;, located outside of Fort Lauderdale. Who wanted brews before eating pancakes or eggs?\r\n\r\nAs the sun rose, the line and anticipation swelled. At 11 a.m., Funky Buddha employees gave the all clear and the line inched forward. Attendees exchanged $15 in cash for a wristband that allowed them to grab a bottle of &lt;a href=\"http://funkybuddhabrewery.com/our-beers/special-release/maple-bacon-coffee-porter\"&gt;Maple Bacon Coffee Porter&lt;/a&gt;, one of the most lusted-after porters in America. Over the day, around 4,000 attendees snapped up the allotted 3,000 bottles, demand far outstripping supply.\r\n\r\n\u201CThe beer tastes like breakfast at a roadside dinner,\u201D says Funky Buddha\u2019s brand director, &lt;strong&gt;John Linn&lt;/strong&gt;. \u201CWe want to create beers that you can sip and taste a dish or evoke a memory. And breakfast has many memorable flavors.\u201D\r\n\r\n&lt;strong&gt;Welcome to the eye-opening world of breakfast beer&lt;/strong&gt;. Breweries countrywide have begun turning to the day\u2019s first meal for inspiration, tossing oats, coffee, maple syrup, milk sugar, tea, and even Dutch appelstroop into the brew kettle, devising brews fit for at the breakfast table. Rhode Island\u2019s state beverage, coffee milk, is re-created in &lt;a href=\"http://www.narragansettbeer.com/\"&gt;Narragansett&lt;/a&gt;\u2019s &lt;a href=\"http://www.narragansettbeer.com/tag/autocrat-coffee-milk-stout\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;Autocrat Coffee Milk Stout&lt;/a&gt;. Coffee also stars in Founders\u2019 fittingly named &lt;a href=\"http://foundersbrewing.com/our-beer/breakfast-stout/\"&gt;Breakfast Stout&lt;/a&gt;, while tea lovers will welcome &lt;a href=\"http://rognessbrewing.com/beer/\"&gt;Rogness\u2019s chai-inspired Yogi&lt;/a&gt;. Crave a bacon-topped doughnut? Try &lt;a href=\"http://rogue.com/beers/voodoo-bacon-maple.php\"&gt;Rogue\u2019s Bacon Maple Ale&lt;/a&gt;. If you\u2019d rather have a breakfast-focused beer with healthier aims, look toward &lt;a href=\"http://martinhousebrewing.com/2013/06/26/day-break-4-grain-breakfast-beer/\"&gt;Martin House\u2019s Day Break&lt;/a&gt;.\r\n\r\nThe head brewer of Martin House was toying around with lactose (or milk sugar), different malts, and honey, realizing that the beer mimicked a bowl of cereal. \u201CWe\u2019ve had comparisons to Honey Nut Cheerios,\u201D says &lt;strong&gt;David Wedemeier&lt;/strong&gt;, co-founder of the Fort Worth, Texas\u2013based brewery, adding that the beer is his best-selling brand. \u201CPeople usually laugh when we describe the beer, but then they usually ask for seconds.\u201D\r\n\r\nPerhaps this signals the dawn of a new era of American beer drinking, one in which mimosas and bloodies are joined by beer bottles. \u201CYou can totally drink Maple Bacon Coffee Porter with breakfast with some bacon and pancakes,\u201D enthuses Funky Buddha\u2019s Linn. Narragansett president Mark Hellendrung seconds the sunrise pairing. \u201CI\u2019m not saying you should replace your morning cup of joe with beer every day, but cracking open a cold one at brunch or while tailgating is perfectly acceptable, if not encouraged.\u201D\r\n\r\nHere are 11 morning-themed beers worthy of sampling during brunch. Or breakfast. We\u2019re not judging. To create this vegetarian-friendly beer (no swine is used) meant to mimic a diner breakfast, the culinary-focused &lt;a href=\"http://funkybuddhabrewery.com/\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;Florida brewery&lt;/a&gt; relies on a combination of smoked malts and spices. The brewery also makes draft-only beers inspired by mimosas and French toast. It's commonplace for craft brewers to add coffee to stouts and porters, playing up the dark beers\u2019 inherently roasty profile. More unusual is breweries adding coffee beans to IPAs, most notably in the&lt;a href=\"http://www.fortgeorgebrewery.com/\" target=\"_blank\"&gt; Oregon brewery\u2019s&lt;/a&gt; newest release. It uses citrusy Amarillo hops and Ethiopian coffee to fashion a balanced, gently chocolaty brew. Cultish Portland, Oregon, bakery &lt;a href=\"voodoodoughnut.com\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;Voodoo Doughnuts\u2019&lt;/a&gt; beloved\u00A0Bacon Maple Bar received a sudsy tribute from &lt;a href=\"www.rogue.com\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;Rogue Ales&lt;/a&gt;, which turned to smoked malt, maple flavoring and applewood-smoked bacon to create this smoky, lightly sweet riff on the &lt;i&gt;rauchbier&lt;/i&gt;. It\u2019s best alongside\u00A0maple syrup\u2013painted pancakes and sausage. Originally, oatmeal stouts were also advertised as healthy drinks. (In 1904, the British brewery Walker and Homfray\u2019s stated that its oatmeal stout was \u201Csuitable for invalids.\u201D) The style was dead by the 1970s, but British brewery &lt;a href=\"www.samuelsmithsbrewery.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;Samuel Smith&lt;/a&gt; dug it up from the grave in 1980, creating this velvety and bittersweet stout. Packed with cold-brewed, organic java, the &lt;a href=\"http://bigbossbrewing.com/\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;Raleigh, North Carolina, brewery\u2019s&lt;/a&gt; winter seasonal is motor-oil dark, chockablock with flavors of well-roasted coffee, chocolate milk, and vanilla beans. Danish gypsy brewer &lt;a href=\"http://www.mikkeller.dk/\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;Mikkeller\u2019s&lt;/a&gt; pitch-black, pleasingly thick stout has an intense coffee flavor that\u2019s cut with subtle smokiness and dried cherries. (For another worthy coffee beer, try Santa Fe\u2019s Imperial Java Stout.) Modeled after cereal, this \u201C&lt;a href=\"http://martinhousebrewing.com/\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;four-grain breakfast beer&lt;/a&gt;\u201D is brewed with barley, smooth wheat, silky oats, and spicy rye. Lactose and honey provide an appealing sweetness, while the five percent ABV means you can sip several before noon and still retain your wits. Rhode Island\u2019s official state beverage is coffee milk, which is made by blending dairy with sweetened coffee syrup, most commonly Autocrat. &lt;a href=\"www.narragansettbeer.com\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;Narragansett&lt;/a&gt; blended the syrup with bittersweet milk stout, creating a smooth, dark road paved with chocolate and a smidgen of bitterness. (Note: the beer is sold out and will return in November.) To craft this exotic amber ale, the &lt;a href=\"http://rognessbrewing.com/\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;Austin-area brewery&lt;/a&gt; spices the brew with ingredients commonly found in chai tea, including cinnamon, clove, cardamom, black pepper and ginger. Naturally, Yogi is one meditative beer. Is it a sly nod to the musical duo, or an ode to the Dutch? Both. Holland Oats, a collaboration between roving American brewery &lt;a href=\"http://stillwaterales.blogspot.com/\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;Stillwater&lt;/a&gt; and the Netherlands\u2019 &lt;a href=\"http://www.emelisse.nl/\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;Emelisse&lt;/a&gt;, contains toasted oats and appelstroop, a thick syrup often spread on pancakes and toast. The result is a moderately sweet amber ale redolent of caramel, citrus, and stone fruit. Consider Bee Tea the hybridized offspring of morning and night. The &lt;a href=\"http://www.nightshiftbrewing.com/\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;Belgian-inspired wheat ale&lt;/a&gt; is brewed with orange honey and orange peel, before being aged with loose green tea. Bee Tea is dry, herbaceous, gently sweet, and altogether refreshing."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
