Previous Episode: As Drank on TV

The Barrel to Bottle Crew has never shied away from spicy food, so it’s kind of hard to believe it’s taken us this long to do a hot sauce episode. Jenna recently attended a hot sauce festival, which Greg was prevented from going to by his significant other, and she brought back a slew of sauces, then added some of her own, along with one from producer Jim.

The plan is simple: crack open a selection of beers, wines and spirits and sample sauces from mild to hottest and attempt to find which, if any of these beverage alcohols pair with spicy, vinegary, fruity, garlicky hot sauces.

Pair along at home with the following:

Avery Island Rascal Roaring Table Vienna Style Lager Bell's Porter Dry Creek Chenin Blanc 2021 Banshee Pinot Noir 2019 Elio Perrone Bigaro 2021 Vamanos Riendo Mezcal Joven Sweetens Cove Kennessee Bourbon Fernet Branca Cappelletti Amaro Alta Verde Jeppson's Barrel-Aged Malört
