Terrapin Beer Company from Athens, Georgia, is using the wood used to make Mizuno baseball bats to age the beer.
It’s called Chopsecutioner, honoring the Braves’ tomahawk chop.
CBS Sports described the beer as "a lighter IPA with a great flavor."
It contains a whopping 7.3 percent alcohol level.
So how do the bats tie into the brewing process?
After the beer is fermented, they pour the beer on wood chips left over from making the bats. It cools the brew and ages it.
That's right: The Chopsecutioner is aged on Mizuno wood bat chips. One word to describe: Phenomenal
