Bacon & Beer Pairing #2: Lagunitas IPA with Pepper Bacon
The spicy citrusy hops from this classic IPA mingle with the pepper while putting out the fire.
This second pairing was my favorite. It was quite powerful for the other three to follow. All of the bacon was sourced just right. You could taste the quality of the meats. The pepper did not overpower that wonderful meat flavor. I thought that the mix would be taste overload, but it really did pair nicely together. Both were very good alone, but together it was kismet.
Don't let the picture of the bacon put you off. This bacon was good enough for me to seek it out on the menu for dinner.
