THE CONQUEST
Bourbon. Beer. Rock. That’s what we do at Idle Hands Bar and one of our signature events is pairing Rock and Roll music with Beer and Food. Whether it’s our annual Beastie Boys NY Beer Pairing (Put July 16, 2014 in your calendar now) or past Burger Week events featuring Burger and Beer pairings with Iron Maiden or Guns N Roses, we really think it’s fun to drink Beer and eat while listening to good tunes. Seeing that everyone we have ever done has sold out, it seems you do too. When it came to planning for our annual NY Burger Week Burger and Beer pairing I racked my brain trying to think of which band would be perfect to do this with. Upon some investigation I learned that this week was the anniversary of AC/DC recording Back In Black at Electric Lady studios in NYC. When I realized we could call the event “Back In Black Angus,” the decision was made.

NY BURGER WEEK EVENT

AC/DC BACK IN BLACK ANGUS BURGER & BEER PAIRING DINNER
At Idle Hands Bar

– $30 for 3 Mini Burgers, Tots & 5 Beers Paired with Back In Black –

Tuesday, May 6, 2014
Idle Hands Bar
25 Avenue B, NYC
7:00 and 8:30 pm seatings

Price: $30
Ticket link: https://theburgerweek.com/tickets/

Includes:

3 off-menu AC/DC themed mini burgers
1 order of tater tots
5 tastes of beer from breweries
1 shot of whiskey
Paired to all 10 tracks from Back In Black by AC/DC

On the anniversary of its recording in New York at Electric Lady Studios, attendees will enjoy a selection of off-menu mini-burgers created by Chef Dennis Hatzinger, each themed with a different song on the album. All Burgers will be made using Burger Maker’s Fresh Certified Angus Beef USDA Prime. FYI – Less than 1% of beef is considered CAB® USDA Prime worthy, so get ready for the good stuff. Burgers will be served with a series of craft beers from Bell’s Brewery, Two Brothers, 21st Amendment and Singlecut Beersmiths. The dinner will also include an order of Tater Tots & a shot of Whiskey.

THE BURGERS & BEERS
When I asked Chef Dennis if he could handle this event, he practically laughed at me. That meant he was up for the challenge. When he sent me the menu (see below), my eyes practically popped out of my head. Dennis not only was going to make it happen, he was going to own it. The way the event works, we hit play on the album and as each song comes blaring through the speakers, you get served the item paired with that song. It is expected that you keep pace with the servings. Meaning if the song is only 3 minutes, we expect you to drink your Beer / eat your Burger in 3 minutes. It’s super fast paced, really loud and a lot of fun.

Here are the pairing notes:

Thank you for coming to Idle Hands tonight for a unique version of our weekly beer tasting event. As part of our annual NY Burger Week event, we celebrate the recording of AC/DC’s “Back In Black” album with a special burger and beer pairing. All 10 songs on the record will be paired with a Burger, Beer, Whiskey or Tater Tots. All the meat featured in the burgers tonight is fresh ground Certified Angus Beef USDA Prime from Burger Maker. Only 1% of the cattle in America qualify as CAB USDA Prime. It has strong and intense all natural beef flavors and we thought it was the only meat that could match the intensity of rock and roll we’ll be enjoying tonight.

Beer: Bell’s Black Note
Style: Imperial Stout
ABV: 10.5%
Description: Black Note blends the complex aromatics of Expedition Stout with the velvety smooth texture of Double Cream Stout. The combination is aged in freshly retired oak bourbon barrels for months.
Track: “Hell’s Bells”
Pairing: The first tolling of the bell in “Hells Bells,” sets the tone for the rock n roll intensity that became the 4th highest selling album of all times. This rare and intense stout from Bell’s should do the same.

Beer: Bell’s Two Hearted Ale
Style: IPA
ABV: 7%
Description: India Pale Ale style well suited for Hemingway-esque trips to the Upper Peninsula. American malts and enormous hop additions give this beer a crisp finish and incredible floral hop aroma.
Track: “Shoot To Thrill”
Pairing: Two Hearted Ale is a gold standard IPA. One sip and it gets under your skin. Get your taste buds ready and enjoy at will.

Burger: Honey Glazed Burger, Crispy Prosciutto & Aged White Cheddar
Track: “What You Do For Money Honey”
Pairing: Honey, what do you do for burgers? You’ll be spending a night in queue for this Burger.

Beer: Two Brothers Dog Days
Style: Dortmunder/Helles
ABV: 4.9%
Description: Brewed in the style of Dortmund, Germany, this golden lager has a delicate caramel malt character, balanced by a light body and mild German noble hops, creating a crisp, refreshing finish.
Track: “Givin The Dog A Bone”
Pairing: Angus & Malcom Young – two brothers that redefined Rock N Roll. Jim & Jason Ebel,- two brothers that redefined European style brewing in America. See what we did there?

Beer: 21st Amendment Back In Black
Style: Black IPA
ABV: 6.8%
Description: Brewed like an American IPA but with the addition of rich, dark malts, this beer has all the flavor and hop character you expect with a smooth, mellow finish.
Track: “Let Me Put My Love Into You”
Pairing: How do we possibly have this event and not serve this beer? They question you should ask is why this song? Because Chef Dennis wanted to pair a Burger with “Back In Black.” Save a sip for what’s coming next.

Burger: Blackened Burger, Fried Shallots, Bacon & Provolone
Track: “Back In Black”
Pairing: Let loose from the noose because this Burger will be getting you high on the savory and spicy flavors. It’s Outta sight.

Beer: Singlecut Bon TNTPA
Style: Pale Ale
ABV: 5.2%
Description: If you want hops, you got it! Oi! So you want to get kicked in the teeth with a lupulin kick that’s all from Down Under? (Well OK, maybe some New Zealand in there too). This is a whole lotta dry-hopped powder keg in a sessionable package and only for you problem childs out there.
Track: “You Shook Me All Night Long
Pairing: If a brewery is going to make an AC/DC themed beer, we’ll make sure we have it for an AC/DC Beer pairing.

Whiskey: Jameson Irish Whiskey
Style: Porter
Proof: 80
Description: A pot still whiskey with a delicate grain whiskey, infuse them with the nuttiness of our sherry casks and balance the flavours with the fragrant vanilla of our bourbon casks. And, like all our whiskeys, Jameson Irish Whiskey is triple distilled, creating a smoother spirit perfect for any occasion
Track: “Have A Drink On Me”
Pairing: What is the first word of this song?

Burger: The Berry Goat – Goat Cheese & Raspberry Compote
Track: “Shake A Leg”
Pairing: You’ll be kicking like a goat after eating this taste sensation. Also, what’s the 1st word of this song?

Tater Tots
Track: “Rock And Roll Ain’t Noise Pollution”
Pairing: If you’re gonna pair 1 of the greatest rock n roll songs of all times with a potato, why not the best potato product of all times?

Man oh man. This is a really, really, really tough event to make happen. 10 courses in 49 minutes is not only hard to serve, it’s hard to eat / drink!! It took a team of 4 of us just to serve 20 people! But honestly, the mayhem and chaos is all worth it because of how much fun it is to produce it.

Thanks. I mean really, that’s the one word I want to get across here. Thanks. To everyone who bought a ticket and came to the party, thank you. I don’t have to say “I hope you had a good time” because I know you did, especially the group of ladies who decided to sit through the second seating just because they wanted to listen to more AC/DC. Every single person that came was super nice and a lot of fun to serve. Thanks goes to Sean from Two Brothers, Nick & Brian from Singlecut, Susanne from 21st Amendment, Zalika from Manhattan Distributors, Matt from Union Distributors and Yvon from Bell’s Brewing. Each one of these people not only showed up to the event day of to pour you their Beer and talk about it but they also made sure we were able to get the special Beers we poured during the tasting. Only 14 kegs of Two Brothers Dog Days came into NYC, only 1 keg of Singlecut Bon TNTPA was available, only 40 cases of Bell’s Black Note came into the state of NY. You guys were treated to some very special, small batch and unique Craft Beers. Thank you to Chef Dennis, Chris P & Chris T from Idle Hands Bar. It’s a pleasure to work with you guys and I appreciate how dedicated you were to making this a smooth and fun event. To Dennis, man, it’s been a pleasure working with you for the last year. Your Food is excellent and your dedication to cooking perfect Hamburgers is like no other. You took the Food at Idle Hands to another level and I have been extremely proud of the Burgers we’ve served, especially on this, your final night at the bar. To Rob and Marc, my partners at Idle Hands Bar, you guys are way more than just that to me and I’m super proud of what we are able to do there. This event was super fun and I appreciate you letting me get away with putting us in legal jeopardy. Ha ha ha

THE CONQUEST
Who eats 10 Burgers in one day? Last year during the 2nd Annual Amstel Light NY Burger Crawl you did! New York City however is not to be outdone and this year for the 3rd annual you ate 14 BURGERS IN ONE DAY!!!! We had so much fun in 2013 that I knew we had to bring the event back and make it even bigger. Thanks to Amstel Light, the official Beer of the Burger, we were able to make it happen again. Amstel Light is the Beer that Beer drinkers drink when they’re having a light Beer … with a Burger. Amstel Light is made with only 4 ingredients; Water, Hops, Yeast & Malted Barley. It comes from a brewing tradition that dates back to 1870 in Amsterdam. It’s a perfect Beer to have when you are having 14 of them at 14 different NYC bars with 14 different Burgers.

This year’s Burger Crawl was made even more special as it was a fund raiser for Autism Speaks. Their goal is to change the future for all who struggle with autism spectrum disorders. Thanks to help from Burger Maker, The Food Film Fest, Burger Lift, Burgerator, BurgerWeekly & Gift Courture, a portion of every ticket sold to the crawl will be donated to their organization.

We tried our best to make it to every single location and eat every single Burger. We met so many great people as we walked around the city on a gorgeous day while having a great time. I want to give a special shout out to Daina from The Hungry Fan and her friend Garrett who paced along the crawl with us.

Thank you to everyone who participated in the 3rd annual Amstel Light NY Burger Crawl. Only in a city like New York can you do something this crazy, fun and delicious. I got the chance to speak with a lot of you who participated and it seemed like you were having an awesome day filled with Burgers and Beers from Amstel Light. I’m really proud of what we were able to accomplish together in raising money for Autism Speaks. A big thank you goes to Amstel Light and the Heineken family. They are the ones that make this possible. Coordinating with 14 bars is a lot of work and they helped to facilitate that task. The biggest of thank you’s goes to all of the bars who participated. I appreciate all that you did to help promote the event and the great customer service you showed everyone who was out on the crawl. You guys are the stars of the show and your dedication to serving good Beer and Burgers to the people is outstanding. Thank you to the Burger Lift and Burgeator teams. Hopefully you got a chance to spend a few minutes with them and see how they are working to improve the Burgerverse. A sincere tip of the hat goes to the entire staff of Idle Hands Bar, especially Chef Dennis Hatziner, who cooked up a whopping 480 ounces of Ground Beef just during the crawl. You guys all worked very hard to make the first stop on the crawl a fun and tasty place to be. I’d also like to thank Sarah from Gift Couture for donating Cheeseburger Wrapping Paper to be given away to one lucky crawler. There are way too too too too many to name but thank you to every single person, media outlet, promotional partner and just about anyone who took the time to write a story, publish a blog post, send out a tweet, post to Facebook and Instagram any picture, message or otherwise that helped bring attention to this event. I truly, truly appreciate your support. It took every single one of the people and outlets named in this section to make this happen and raise money for Autism Speaks. It’s really just proof that you can help others by eating delicious Burgers and washing them down with refreshing Beers.

BURGER CONQUEST TO HOST 3RD ANNUAL NY BURGER WEEK
MAY 1-7, 2014

To celebrate National Hamburger Month, Burger Conquest, Burger Maker & The Food Film Festival proudly bring you the 3rd Annual NY Burger Week, May 1-7, 2014.

The Burger Week is a 7-day celebration of trendsetting chefs and unique burgers with a series of daily events.

Burger Conquest announces the 3rd annual NY Burger Week from May 1-7, 2014. Offering gourmet blends, off-menu specialities, drink pairings – and the return of the Burger Crawl! – NY Burger Week will pay tribute to the world’s greatest sandwich, the Hamburger. Each restaurateur and Chef will be preparing a unique event that pays tribute to the Burger in their own way.

The Burger Week in New York kicks off May 1 at Black Shack (320 Lexington Ave) with a unique burger collaboration. Chef Jeffrey Maslanka brings off-menu burgers to the Burger Week, this time with Ramen Burger creator Keizo Shimamoto. Chef Jeff was the creative force behind the 2013 NY Burger Week off-menu Burger brunch at 67 Burger. For 2014, he and Shimamoto will work together to re-imagine each other’s Burger. Keizo has re-designed Jeff’s Western Burger – and it will be served along with Jeff’s take on the Ramen Burger. The dinner, limited to only 40 seats, will also feature a Black Shack off-menu Asian-themed side and a beer milk shake.

More details and tickets are available here: https://theburgerweek.com/tickets/

To celebrate Cinco De Mayo, The Burger Week has teamed up with The Bar Room (117 E. 60th St) for a Mexican-themed Burger feast. On May 5, you’ll be treated to a special pre-fixe dinner designed by The Bar Room Chef Kenny Brand. The event includes a 5-course Mexican themed dinner with 3 dishes and 2 cocktails, including a beer cocktail made with Dos Equis. The star of the show will be a Mexican-spiced Burger patty topped with aged cheddar, grilled tomato, fresh-made pico de gallo and a side of nachos (replacing the standard French Fries). The burger will be made with Burger Maker’s fresh “Certified Angus Beef Steakburger” which includes only fresh Certified Angus Beef trimming that are upper two-thirds USDA Choice.

More details and tickets are available here: https://theburgerweek.com/tickets/

The 2014 Burger Week in NY returns to Idle Hands Bar (25 Avenue B) on May 6th with another installment of their rock ‘n’ roll burger and beer pairing dinners. The event is called the “AC/DC Back In Black Angus Burger and Beer Pairing.” The menu will feature Burgers and beers “expertly paired” with each track on AC/DC’s Back in Black album by The Burger Week founder, Rev Ciancio. The album, originally released in 1980, has gone on to become the 4th highest selling album of all time. On the anniversary of its recording in New York at Electric Lady Studios, attendees will enjoy a selection of off-menu mini-burgers created by Chef Dennis Hatzinger using Burger Maker’s Custom Blend Certified Angus Beef Burgers, each themed with a different song on the album. Burgers will be served with a series of craft beers from Bell’s Brewery, Two Brothers, 21st Amendment and Singlecut Beersmiths. The dinner will also include an order of tater tots & a shot of whiskey.

More details and tickets are available here: https://theburgerweek.com/tickets/

THANK YOUS
First and foremost, if you attended any event whether as a fan, friend or working on it, thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you and THANK YOU. I did this for you. Granted there were some tasty side benefits but by being a part of NY Burger Week, you help show the rest of the world that we love our Burgers. I tip my hat and bow to you in honor.

In order of appearance, thank you to each of you.

My wife and talented novelist, Cara Lynn Shultz. You make my every day better and if Burgers ceased to exist today, my life would go on because I would still be able to share it with you.

Taste What You See On the Screen at the Food Film Festival in NYC, Chicago and now Charleston, SC. The people that put on this festival are some of the nicest, most fun and passionate people I have met in the hospitality business. I love being a part of your family and appreciate your support of NY Burger Week. George Motz, Seth Unger and Nicole Bergman – I love you. Your support of good food & good times makes life worth working for.

Jarlsberg Cheese rules, much like the people that represent it. There’s a reason you are successful and that’s because you realize Cheese is about life, it’s about community and it’s about sharing. Thank you for sharing with NY Burger Week. Ronnie, Aja & Casey, you are three hardest working people in the biz.

Jamie Schweid! I want your job. You wake up every day and get to talk about Hamburgers and not just any Hamburgers. Burger Maker Beef is some of the best in the business and I am honored to be able to represent your delicious product. Without you, there is no NY Burger Week. Here’s to Boston, Philly, Chicago and beyond.

Marc and Rob, my partners at Idle Hands Bar, thank you not just for a super fun kick off event but helping to make a childhood dream come true. To Dan & That Burger, all the best of luck buddy. I am psyched that we were able to help you take your business to all new levels. Don’t forget the little people when you have 600 That Burger locations along the Eastern Seaboard. Don’t forget, you owe us a Bourbon Ketchup release party. To Ally from Green Flash, Billy from Ballast Point & Dan from Stone Brewing Co, that awesome. Let’s do it again.

To Justin, Chef Ariel, Trevor and all at Harding’s, your restaurant is soon to be known as one of the best in the city. Thank you for allowing my crazy ideas into your fantastic restaurant. Jessica from Heaven Hill, I am psyched we got to work together. You are Bourbon’s best rep in the big city. The Whiskey Roundtable brings you super rad Whiskey events in NYC and you should pay more attention to what they do. Thanks Ellie.

Andrew from Boozy Burbs & William Cho from Hudson 303 Sport Cafe helped change the definition of “NY Burger Week” to mean not just inside the 5 Boroughs. Thank you.

Times Square is a crazy place with a lot of crazy things going on and thanks to Jeff Gliner, Samantha Bevacqua and everyone at Bowlmor, Get Real Presents got to make it a little crazier with the world’s first Beer, Bowling & Burger Festival. Your Chef NAILED my Burger menu and you’re staff is the best in the business. Thanks for letting us do our thing. To Union Beer Distributors and all the brand managers and their Beers that we poured, you made this inaugural event happen. We thank you. Man oh man, I LOVE Potato Chips and McClures has figured out how to make some of the best I have ever tasted. People loved them and your Pickles. Your support of Get Real and NY Burger Week is beyond appreciated. To Green Mountain Energy and the Village Voice, your undying support of Get Real Presents helps us to keep building a community of educated eaters & drinkers. Ben Trivett, thanks for making us look so good!

Ashley Healey, you are my new best bud. Thank you for having the foresight, drive and tenacity to make not only our partnership work but being the real brawn behind the 2nd annual NY Burger Crawl. Amstel Light is not only the official Beer of the Burger but now can claim to be the official Beer of the NY Burger Crawl.

There’s a lot of bars in the city but only 10 of them who supported your Burger & Beer needs. When are you looking for a bar in Murray Hill or Kips Bay, be sure to check out: Desmond’s Tavern, Mad Hatter Saloon, Manhattan Brewhouse, Mason Jar, Murray Bar 34, Nelly Spillanes, Rodeo Bar, Slattery’s Midtown Pub, The Churchill, Van Diemen’s.

Both Gilt City & Timeout Offers helped bring a lot of people out to the Burger Crawl and for that, I say thank you. More tasty times ahead.

Before I say thank you to everyone at 67 Burger, please allow me to publicly thank and recognize McKenzie Mahoney from the mmmguide for not only helping to organize this event but for being one of the biggest supporters of NY Burger Week out there. You are one of my favorite people to work with. People who get to participate in things like the NY Burger Week live a charmed life. Not everyone is so fortunate and it’s you that helps to remind me that helping people less fortunate is important. Everyone should spend 2 hours volunteering with McKenzie at God’s Love We Deliver. Not only does it feel good but you’ll be seriously helping people to eat better.

Onto 67 Burger! Jeff, Ed, Daphne and the rest of you, holy mackerel! I asked if you would be willing to take over the off-menu Burger Bash and you not only did a great job but you made it your own. Start working on the menu for 2014 right now because we are coming back!! I love Craft Beer and moreover, I love the people that make it. Do yourself a favor; go visit the Empire Brewery in Syracuse. The Beer is exquisite the food is wonderful and the people are the best in the business.

Watching “Burger Land” on more than a dozen huge screen TVs while bowling, drinking Beer & eating Burgers with the host of the show has got to be the next best thing to being on it. Thank you to Brooklyn Bowl, Brooklyn Brewery & Blue Ribbon for making TV into real life!

I’m still over the moon from the 5 Burgers from 5 Animals paired with 5 Beers from 5 Breweries we had the Alewife’s Beer Burger Conquest dinner. Thank you to Patrick, Roz, Travis, Gregorio and everyone there for setting the bar at the highest level for future NY Burger Week events.

When I’m not out enjoying a meal at one of the 26,000 restaurants in NYC, I’m eating their Food at home thanks to delivery.com. To Johnny, Neeraj, Meghan and everyone else in the organization, especially Chris Steib, you put together one of the coolest promotions I’ve ever seen with some of the best Burger restos in NYC with your “Burger Week Delivered” initiative. Thanks to you, I get to say thank you to 5 Napkin Burger, Big Daddy’s, Bourbon Street Bar & Grille, David Burke at Bloomingdale’s, Duke’s, House of Brews, Lucky’s Famous Burgers, Mikey’s Burgers, Paul’s Da Burger Joint, Sidewalk Cafe, Black Shack, The Burger Bistro, The New York Beer Company, White Star & Whitman’s.

THE CONQUEST
It’s been 602 days since Dan Petersen and That Burger took over the kitchen at Idle Hands Bar. In that time we’ve al eaten some tasty burgers paired with Iron Maiden, young adult novels, American Octoberfest Beers & even given them away for free for my birthday. We also helped Dan create, launch and sell his signature Bourbon Ketchup. It’s been a fun, tasty, burgerific ride … and now it’s over.

May 1, 201 was not only the first day of National Hamburger Month and NY Burger Week, it was also That Burger’s final day at 25 Avenue B. Because neither I nor Idle Hands Bar do anything unless it’s worth overdoing (my life motto), we sent Dan & That Burger off with a bang, a head-bang that is…

To celebrate the kick off of NY Burger Week & National Hamburger Month, Idle Hands Bar has put together a VERY SPECIAL edition of their weekly Tasting event. Tonight we celebrate the Guns And Roses epic debut album “Appetite For Destruction” with a special burger and beer pairing.

Stone Ballast Green Flash Breweries Guns N Roses

We welcome representatives from 3 of our favorite South California breweries to do a perfect craft beer & burger pairing dinner with all 12 songs on the album!

THE BURGERS, BEERS & PAIRINGS
The way the event works is we hit play on “Appetite For Destruction” and as each track begins, you are served the paired food or beer. All Beers, Burgers & Tots were “perfectly” paired by yours truly.

Burger: Welcome to The (That) Burger
Description: Sauteed Onions, Sauteed Jalapeños, American Cheese
Track: “Welcome to the Jungle”
Pairing: The signature burger from That Burger with the kickoff track of the album.

Beer: Green Flash East Village Pils
Style: Pilsner
ABV: 5.3%
Description: What Fizzy Yellow Beer should be: full of life and flavor unlike domestic mass produced, mundane, lifeless, boring, bland, fizzy yellow, insipid swill that takes up space at pubs and restaurants.
Track: “It’s So Easy”
Pairing: Making beer this tasty should be so easy.

Beer: Ballast Point Sculpin
Style: IPA
ABV: 7%
Description: Bright with aromas of apricot, peach, mango and lemon. Its lighter body also brings out the crispness of the hop.
Track: “Nightrain”
Pairing: The Sculpin fish has poisonous spikes on its fins that can give a strong sting. Ironically, the meat from a Sculpin is considered some of the most tasty, much like this IPA.

Burger: Out ta Eat Me
Description: Bacon, That Bourbon Ketchup, Blue Cheese
Track: “Out ta Get Me”
Pairing: If the bacon & blue cheese doesn’t getcha, the bourbon ketchup will.

Beer: Stone Smoked Porter
Style: Porter
ABV: 5.9%
Description: A rich, dark and delicious porter with chocolate and coffee overtones accented by a subtle smokiness from just the right amount of peat smoked malt
Track: “Mr. Brownstone”
Pairing: If you can’t figure out this pairing, please excuse yourself, grab a Budweiser and visit the nearest McDonalds.

Burger: Paradise Burger
Description: Lettuce, Guacamole, Red Island Sauce, Cheddar Cheese
Track: “Paradise City”
Pairing: Red Island sauce is heavenly but it will take you down.

Beer: Greenflash Hop Head Red
Style: Amber Ale
ABV: 7%
Description: Resinous hop characteristics emerge from an enormous hopping with Columbus, Nugget and Amarillo overtaking the rich caramel malt base.
Track: “My Michelle”
Pairing: Someday you’ll find someone that you can call your own but till then ya better drink some Hop Head Red.

Beer: Stone Enjoy By 5/17/13 IPA
Style: Double IPA
ABV: 9.4%
Description: Stone has sent a clear message with the name of the beer itself that there is no better time than right now to enjoy this IPA.
Track: “Think About You”
Pairing: You clearly have taken the time to think about enjoying craft beer, now drink it.

Burger: Sweet Burger o’ Mine
Description: Sauteed Pineapple with Teriyaki Sauce, Honey Ham, Cheddar Cheese
Track: “Sweet Child o’ Mine”
Pairing: 3 layers of sweetness with a savory cheddar will make you ours.

Beer: Ballast Point Wahoo Wheat with Thai Chili and Lime
Style: Witbier with spices & fruits
ABV: 4%
Description: Ballast Point Wahoo Wheat Beer is created using flaked unmalted wheat, oats and malted barley comprise the grain, a special yeast, mild hopping, adding a blend of curacao (bitter orange), sweet orange and coriander to the boil and in this case, thai chili and lime.
Track: “You’re Crazy”
Pairing: This is exactly what the other folks at Ballast Point said when the brewer said he wanted to make this beer.

Food: Bacon Spiced Tots
Track: “Anything Goes”
Pairing: As if tater tots were not already nature’s carbohydrate version of heroine, when it’s That Burger, anything goes, especially bacon spices!

Food: Bourbon Ketchup
Track: “Rocket Queen”
Pairing: Rocket Queen, you better turn me on tonight and if you don’t at least you’ll have That Burger’s signature bourbon ketchup.
