Simpsons aficionados may remember mention of a skittle-laced beer called Skittlebrau (If you don't, consult the Simpsons Food Archive). Well, I recently came across
someone who took it a bit too far: The Glossy News concocted roughly a dozen
different skittle-infused beers and spirits.
Why? Why not I guess. Some of the combinations are easy to believe--Skittles and Bacardi Silver, for example, should be
nothing new to the sorority crowd, although I'm surprised they didn't serve it with a straw. Others, like Skittles and
Old Milwaukee ("Old Skilwaukee"), I'd rather not have thought about. If you look closely, you can still see
the Skittle bits glowing at the bottom of the mug.Skittlebrau, for real

My brewmeister buddy tells me that homebrewers actually will brew with skittles -- but not put them in the bottom of the glass unmagnaminously such as this. He suggests that they would be melted down into a syrup so they are sterilized and then added to the mash for fermentation.
