Well, I was not disappointed. One of Voodoo Doughnut's most popular creations is a delectable raised yeast doughnut with maple frosting and bacon on top. Maple bars don't seem to be as common on the east coast as they are out west—unless I just haven't visited the right bakeries in Vermont—so it was kind of a new treat for me. The bacon on top might sound a little weird to some, but it was absolutely fantastic.

I actually thought it was called the Maple Bacon Bar, but, in fact, it's the Bacon Maple Bar. I guess that makes sense from their perspective. But, I'm going on the record to say if Voodoo Doughnut is interested in calling our home brew the official beer of their Bacon Maple Bar, we'll gladly change its name to Maple Bacon Voodoo Porter, but not Bacon Maple Voodoo Porter.
Update (8/25/11): I meant to add to this that I'm not holding my breath, especially so after seeing this.

My younger son's hair is an exact match for maple bar frosting, and here's why. His mother consumed at least one maple bar virtually every day of her pregnancy carrying him. And that was in suburban Seattle.
ReplyDeleteHe also loves bacon.
Coincidence? I think not.
