At last, a use for Rogue Maple Voodoo...

I still don't know about that. I love beer in all sorts of food, and think it's a great addition to cakes and such, but the idea of beer ice cream turns me off.

 

I've had several beer ice creams that I've liked, but, like the saying says, "Garbage in, garbage out".

 

Hell no.

 

I always figured it would be good to induce vomiting if someone ingested something poisonous by accident.

 

i made ice cream using more or less this recipe using BCBS. it is incredibly delicious. here's the exact recipe that i wrote for a different forum:

1 pint heavy cream
6 egg yolks
3/4 c sugar
1/2 tsp salt
8oz BCBS
1 split and scraped vanilla bean

Whisk yolks, sugar, and salt together. Add heavy cream and whisk. Heat mixture slowly to 180 on the stove, stirring fairly frequently (should take about 10-15 minutes). Remove from heat, chill in stainless bowl in ice bath. When down to about room temperature, add beer and scraped vanilla bean, stir to combine. Cover and place in the refrigerator until mixture is below 40 degrees. Remove vanilla bean halves. Put into ice cream maker for 20-30 minutes. Transfer to airtight container and freeze for 4 hours to harden.

This time, I made it with 6oz of BCBS because I was worried that 8 would be too much given its intense flavour. In the final ice cream, the vanilla overwhelms it so 8 oz is warranted.

 

I don't know about this... Maybe if they gave me the beer for free!

 

I figure I like ice cream. I like beer. I like Maple syrup. I LOVE bacon. But I sure as hell don't think I would want to spend the money on this beer to make an ice cream I may not like.
