From the official Obama food Blog: Recipe below:
President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama have joined the home brewing beer trend that's swept the US, and will be serving a very special White House brew tonight when they welcome guests for the annual Super Bowl party, to watch as the Packers take on the Steelers. (Above: President Obama listens as the National Anthem is played on television during the 2009 White House Super Bowl party in the East Garden Room, when the Cardinals took on the Steelers)

In a special turn of events in the history of White House food creations, one of the White House chefs has brewed White House Honey Ale, a White House aide exclusively tipped ObFo. It uses one pound of honey from this year's 160-pound harvest of honey from the White House Bee Hive, which sits beside Mrs. Obama's South Lawn Kitchen Garden.
The President, First Lady, and their guests will be sampling the special suds for the first time this evening. And the Obamas paid for the micro-brewing equipment, the aide noted, so there's no impact on the national debt.
Suds from Packer country will also be on offer: The White House ordered three cases of craft beer from Hinterland Brewery of Green Bay, Wisconsin right after the NFC championship, the brewmasters announced this week. Pale Ale, Hinterland's signature beer; Amber Ale, which has a caramel flavor; and Luna Stout, which is bold, rich, and creamy, will be quaffed. Pennsylvania will be represented by Pottsville's Yuengling beer, which comes from the oldest brewery in America, the aide said.
Many folks have been interested in cloning this exclusive brew, here is a honey ale I think matches the one brewed for the event.
