Ale aged in maple syrup and scotch whisky barrels. The ultimate potluck dish? Bacon-wrapped anything. Brushed with smoky maple syrup? Yup, yes, do that. First, we gave our Bourbon Barrel-Aged Narwhal a second slumber, filling eight casks used to age maple syrup. Then we brewed a Scotch ale destined for two Ardbeg whisky barrels. The final blend’s maple-rich aroma conceals the peaty flavor that follows—each sip like a trip to the coast of Islay. Sweetness tempers the smoke, but there’s no doubt this pig might be polarizing.
