Named for Colin Kaepernick, quarterback of the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl XLVII, this may be a drink for fans to enjoy while cheering on their team.
Football reference aside, this is an impressive drink and I really like how it uses beer as the filler instead of a soda, which would be a more typical choice. The spiced rum from Shellback is the perfect base here because its smooth, spicy profile mixes well with the fruits and beer.
