MyBeer Buzz
We brought you an early peek at this beer in Nov, and now the release details from SweetWater:
El Danko finally sobered up just long enough to get back in the brewhouse after a 2-year bender! He teamed up with the bros of Fox Bro’s BBQ (Justin and Jonathan Fox — the gents you see above) to come up with a smoked bacon porter, Pulled Porter.
Over the course of three days, the crew from Fox Bros. smoked one ton of malt on their wood-burning Lang smokers, using nothing but hickory. Each batch of malt smoked for 5 hours at 250 degrees to get a nice toast and plenty of good smoke without burning it.
To add that extra bit of oink, we tossed racks of bacon in the smoker to infuse the smoking malt.
Roll around in it with us: Sunday
Come get a sneak peek at this headiest of brewsSunday, January 17 from 2:30-4:30. We’ll have pork sammies from Fox Bros, Sailing to Denver jammin’ on the patio, and the first 200 folks through the door will snag #propersglassware. All for the downright steal of $10.
Can’t make the party? Keep your eyes peeled for 22 oz bombers and draft pours around your town — hitting shelves next week.
