It's that time of the year again where we all stuff ourselves silly with ham and beer! Your Grandma might do an alright ham, but you ain't seen nothing yet...
Jake Kellie experimented with a can of IIPA and a succulent leg of premium Boston Bay Smallgoods ham, then left it in the staff kitchen. Dangerous! It didn't last more than half an hour as the smokey smell wafted around the brewery. It's juicy and sweet, and perfectly paired with a fresh IIPA!
Merry Christmas you cheeky human.
