WTF?!! Chicken salt beer.

@Classic Brewing Co Precisely Phil.
I remember sampling a bacon beer at Barossa Valley Brewing. It definitely tasted like bacon but I found it terrible. Some time later I was in Hahndorf at another craft brewery and the proprietor said I must try his bacon beer. To which I responded, "Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should necessarily do it. No thanks."

Yes & then there was Grumpy's at Verdun, great place but his 'Beesting' Beer was sickly sweet muck flavoured with Honey - Yuk & I remember somewhere in the Riverina I tried a Chilli Beer.

I do like the spicy, aromatic, citrus flavours that hops give to a beer but as far as adding fruit/vegetables/meat etc to beer - come on 😬

My cherry stout is good, as it the hazelnut porter.

Some are good, many are not.

Milk sugar is horrid in beer (IMO) yet lots of people like it

I have visited many Craft Breweries & also bought/tasted craft beers from all over AUS with additions of that type & so far there are only a few that I actually like.

I have one can of this 😬 in the fridge & I don' t look like opening it anytime soon. Truly one of the worst beers I have ever tasted.

Just to clarify things, I don't think the bacon beer I tried actually had any bacon in it. I'm pretty sure the bacon flavour was created with smoked wood chips.

You can also get a Smoked Malt that, in excessive proportions, can make your beer taste like an ashtray.  I have never used it though.

@Shamus O'SeanYou don't know what your missing. Ashtray - nom, nom, nom...😁

Check out this list of 8 strange beers from around the world, the first one would be enough to stop anyone from messing around with beer I would have thought.

It's a gose and as such it needs to have salt in it. So why not add a little extra flavour of chicken? I'm pretty sure it won't be the equivalent to a tea spoon of that stuff in a glass, just small amounts and hints. Looking at what some breweries produce, I think this is harmless.

first one

Kriek – Brouwerij Lindemans, Belgium >> would be sensational.

As for the nuts in a beer, I'll pass on that but Oyster stout is not unusual.

 

And I recall chicken carcass used in beer, I think Craftbrewer did one once? It is a historical beer.

I understand the chicken was used as finings - gelatine. So not overly different to gelatine, plastic, seaweed or fish guts that people use now.

And? How was it?

Different 😄    I quite liked it, as a novelty. I wouldn't buy a lot of it. It does taste as it says, chicken salt beer.

I also have a savoury palate so it didn't offend me.  I'd drink another can now if i had one.
