Needed or Not – High Life Truffles

Miller High Life , the (don’t call it the) champagne of beers, is getting into chocolate.

They have tasked the chocolatier Phillip Ashley with creating not just truffles made with the watery beer but “Bar Snack Truffles, a collection of beer-infused chocolates that celebrate iconic bar snacks.” All for $35.00!

The weird and unappetizing flavors are:

– Grilled Cheese: triple cream cheese white chocolate ganache in a blond chocolate shell
– Lemon Pepper Chicken Wing: a fried chicken ganache infused with lemon pepper seasoning 
– Pretzel Praline: salted pretzel and roasted pecans combined with handcrafted caramel and blond chocolate 
– Beernut: freshly roasted peanuts soaked in the beer then ground into our fragrant butter and enrobed in a milk chocolate shell
– Buttery Popcorn: white chocolate ganache infused with movie theater style popcorn
– Sweet Potato Fry: garnett sweet potato mash blended with blond chocolate. 

Needed? – Truffles and chocolate can work well but this is too much savory. So the answer is Not.
