DALLAS (September 2024) – What’s not to like? Beer? Good. Cotton candy? Good. Bacon? GOOOOD. Joey Tribbiani would be proud of Lakewood Brewing’s Cotton Candy Bacon Blonde Ale making its debut at The State Fair of Texas. The beer will pair alongside Rousso’s Cotton Candy Bacon on a Stick, this year’s winner of the “Best Taste – Sweet” category at the Big Tex® Choice Awards. Available in the Magnolia Beer Garden at The State Fair of Texas from September 27 to October 20, the beer is a cotton candy and bacon flavored blonde ale that is light, slightly sweet, and easy drinking.

 

“To be fair, this was a challenge even for our creative crew,” said Wim Bens, founder and president of Lakewood Brewing. “We’ve put bacon in beer before, and we’ve done fun sweet flavors as well, but to put both in a beer and make it super drinkable took a group effort. But the finished brew turned out fantastic. It’s easy to drink, has a slight cotton candy sweet taste and some smoky bacon in the nose. We’re beyond excited to partner with Rousso’s and can’t wait to have a few while strolling the Midway!”

 

Rousso’s Cotton Candy Bacon on a Stick is honey-smoked bacon on a stick cooked with a special seasoning and secret cotton candy syrup glaze and then wrapped in fluffy cotton candy and lightly caramelized to create the most unique piece of bacon in all of Texas, or anywhere for that matter.

 

Lakewood’s Cotton Candy Bacon Blonde will be exclusively available at the State Fair and at the Lakewood Brewing Taproom alongside fall favorites Pumpkin Spice Latte Temptress, Punkel, and Pony Pils, the beer of Mustang Nation.

 

Locally owned Lakewood just celebrated its 12th anniversary, and is most notably known for its Temptress Imperial Milk Stout, the best-selling craft stout in Texas. Today, its portfolio also includes Stub’s – Texas Pils, Goddess IPA, lagers, stouts, and popular seasonal offering, all of which draw beer lovers to the Brewery and Taproom at 2302 Executive Drive in Garland. Lakewood beers are available on shelves Texas-wide and can be found using Lakewood’s online Beer Finder.
