Some friends of mine created Bacon Day five years ago, a celebration of most glorious swine that occurs the Saturday before Labor Day. As the name would imply, it is a day to enjoy dishes with bacon. We have had everything from bacon benedicts (with bacon fat in the holandaise sauce) to bacon sushi to bacon desserts. Its a great excuse to get fifty people together to drink all day and clog our arteries. Feel free to check out their page here:
International Bacon Day
So aside from spreading the gospel of the most swiney holidays, I am also asking for help:
How would you brew bacon beer?
I'm thinking that a smoky maple stout (I know, sounds weird) might work, or at least a maple something, and then maybe some cooked and thoroughly drained (blotted? remove the fat) bacon in the secondary.
Does anyone have any first hand experience?
