Belgian Blond & Food Pairing

Belgian Blond & Food Pairing
May 23, 2024

Belgian Blond Ales were created to appeal to Pils and Lager drinkers, grain forward with pops of honey-sweet malt and bubbly effervescent. Upon first sip, all I wanted was corn chips. That being said…What do I want to eat when sipping on Belgian Blonds? None other than Frito Pie!!

Snack Time with Foreign Extra Stout
May 13, 2024

The big, bold, boozy brother, Foreign Extra Stouts are like the Arnold Schwarzenegger to Irish Stout’s Danny DeVito. I don’t typically jive with high ABV beers and spicier food profiles—it’s often just doubling down on the burn. But!! There are exceptional exceptions and Foreign Extra Stouts can take the heat. What do I want to snack on while sipping Foreign Extra Stout? Zesty, fiery, crispy-crunchy things found in the chip aisle.

All hail the Pale Ale! The pioneering beer style that launched a thousand craft beer ships. These mildly toasty-caramel, boldly bitter beers make me long for hearty and meaty Mexican meals. Sooo…. What do I want to eat when sipping on American Pale Ales? Beef Birria and Chorizo & Potato Pambazos!!

Brisket, Biscuits & Wee Heavy
Apr 29, 2024

These sweet, malty, caramel-roasty beers, with hints of almost tea-like floral pops and ABV warmth, give off BIG southern BBQ energy. Brisket, biscuits, bubbly cheesy mac skillets, and *all* of the comfy fixin’s.

Flanders Red Ale & Food Pairing
Apr 19, 2024

The Burgundy of Belgium! A beer that sips like a wine. Tart, oaky, and fruity, Flanders Red Ale is a beer that screams for steak! This is probably the most “on brand” pairing I’ll ever make (I will chalk it up to that age old adage of ‘ain’t broke-don’t fix’). This red ale pairs so well with red meat.
