My favorite teams
I don't get the chocolate/maple syrup, chili-cheese jalapeño beer fad. Is that like wine tasting for sophisticated red necks?
Original intent? The best I can come up with was, "because they can". However, there is a side-effect.
Rogue brewing did their whole Voodoo Doughnut Bacon Maplebar ale. The thing as a drink was pretty horrible. For the most part people would try a sample to say they did.
But then a buddy of mine used it to make beer brats.
They were fucking amazing.
So I can't help but wonder if some of those flavored beers like Maple Bacon, Jalapeño cheddar and whatnot continue to be there for culinary, and not imbibing purposes.
