Read an article about some distillers using heirloom varieties of corn in their bourbon.

Has anyone sourced any of this and made a cream ale or even an American lager with it to see if the flavor comes through like they say it does in the whiskey?
I know some heirloom malt has made it's way into the market.

In the case of Bloody Butcher corn we extract sweet dark berry flavors."
"For Purple corn we find an array of baking spices ranging from cinnamon to clove. Floriani is strange, with spice similar to cayenne but other flavors that fall more in an umami category and dark chocolate notes. Magic Manna smells and tastes like fresh baked sugar cookies and Oaxacan Green has Jalapeño spice and cocoa notes.”
