Description

Real smoked bacon and maple syrup cooked in small batches of Artisanal Belgian Style Candi Syrup. Just stop reading for a second and let your brain catch up. Yes your mouth probably did start to water and you just realized you are in fact a little hungry right now. 

MoreBeer! does not mess around.  When we connected with Cascade Candi Syrup over a year ago to co-develop our dream product, we instantly passed over the idea of bacon flavor. First of all, that would be gross and second we knew this syrup had a second calling at the breakfast table come Saturday morning. Six product generations later we now know that not only will you delight your friends with wild beer creations that we cannot even fathom, you will want this authentic bacon syrup right on your waffles. 

We did not design it to overwhlem your beers with bacon, maple or smoke, rather it will add layers of complexity that will be appropriate in many different styles. Should you put this in your next Porter, Brown Ale, Stout or Barleywine? Yes. Should you try this on waffles, pancakes, in a stir fry, on ice-cream, or directly by the heaping spoonful into your salivating mouth? Absolutely.

Smells like breakfast !!
A great product. Please don't expect bacon and maple syrup "flavor" (of course not...your "flavors" should be "malt".). But I added it my favorite stout recipe, and the "aroma" was like breakfast: maple syrup and bacon. Subtle, not overpowering. You'll will not be disappointed. I will try with a Scottish Ale recipe next time. Caution: don't use with IPAs, wheat, or farmhouse ales, or any other brews that use aroma hops. And if you want maple syrup and bacon flavor, go fire up the griddle.

Not enough for 5 gallons
When you open the container, its smells delicious, but its not enough for 5 gallons. I made a stout with it, added at 5 minutes left in the boil, and the flavors didn't come through at all. At $10 per container, it's not affordable to use 2.

Tastes fantastic
Used 2 for a 10g smoked Irish Red batch. One in the mash and one the last 10 of boil. Came out fantastic. I'll definitely get this again.

delicious, subtle, but seems to lower head retention
I used 1lb in a belgian triple recipe I've made a few times. The usual recipe calls for 1.5 lb of table sugar that I invert myself and then add to the fermentor after a few days of the primary fermentation. Its been on CO2 for 3 weeks now. The maple is noticeable, the bacon is just a hint in there (which is about what I was aiming for), but head retention is much lower than usual for this amount of time on CO2.

Works great in a wheat beer
I recently tried this in my wheat beer. Thought it might have potential, but it surpassed my expectations. A nice balance
of maple, vanilla and smoked bacon. When I use these Candi
Syrups, I put them into the fermenter, then pour the chilled
wort over them. Checked this out with the Cascade folks and
they didn't have a problem with it. I don't like to use them in the last 5-10 minutes of the boil because it pulls some of the flavor out.

Very Happy With the Flavor
Reading most of the reviews, people complain about not getting the bacon flavor. I found right the opposite and the smoky bacon flavor really shines through in the porter I used this syrup. I was concerned if I would get the flavor profile, so I added this to a 5 gallon batch in secondary. I gave it a week in secondary before kegging and after a couple weeks conditioning, I'm very pleased with the taste. I do pickup the smokey bacon flavor up front and forward, its the maple that I have a hard time pulling out from the other flavors. If you're looking for bacon flavor, this is worth giving a shot. Much easier than dealing with real bacon and I feel the taste profile is better too.

Good, but not much bacon flavor
I used this into the primary fermentor. My beer is sitting in secondary now, there is a good maple flavor, but I can't taste the bacon. If I were to use again, I would had a handful of smoked malt to the recipe to help bring out the smokey character

I'd Try Again
I really got the maple and smoke from this, but I didn't get the bacon. I wish I had read the directions on the manufacture's website instead of MoreBeer, for when to add. I added two jars to a 10gal brown ale at flame out, and I'm thinking this is why I'm not getting the bacon flavor. The manufacture's website says to add during fermentation. I'll have to try that next time.

Great flavors but bacon flavor lacks (add extract if you want more of it)

Great stuff
Used this in an american brown. 1lb at FO and another 1/2lb near the end of fermentation. Came out perfect. Maple is in check, little bit of smoke late palate. I didn't really pick up the bacon but other people said they could taste it. At any rate the bacon is subtle. Will buy again.
