Carnival Cruise Line’s Brewmaster Colin Presby, Introduces Us To The New Parched Pig Craft Brews

We talk with Carnival’s expert brewmaster Colin Presby and learn all about these delicious new brews. The Parched Pig Craft Brews will be offered at Guy’s Pig & Anchor Bar-B-Que Smokehouse|Brewhouse aboard Carnival Horizon when she debuts in April 2018.

The names of the beers are playfully inspired by the varied barbecue offerings at Smokehouse|Brewhouse.  The four new beers on Carnival Horizon include:

  • ParchedPig Smoked Porter – brewed with in-house smoked malt, this robust, full-bodied beer offers big and bold flavors and notes of molasses and hickory smoke, providing the perfect complement to Smokehouse|Brewhouse’s BBQ favorites
  • ParchedPig Farmhouse Ale – this lightly hopped beer is distinguished by its blond color, fruity and complex character with mild spice notes that balance the brew’s dry finish
  • ParchedPig Toasted Amber Ale – highlighted by its rich amber color and notes of toasted caramel and biscuit, this beer is well balanced, smooth and highly drinkable
  • ParchedPig West Coast IPA – the embodiment of a traditional West Coast India Pale Ale, this hoppy, intense beer is loaded with bitterness with a bright flavor profile and distinctive aroma of citrus and pine
