Last week we welcomed back Bear to represent Southampton beers. They were, as usual, delicious, and we came up with some funky pairings. Double White with Tumin Rutulin: At first glance, this soft color of this beer might imply a mild taste, but this Southampton original is brewed with oats, coriander and orange peel. Bolder [...]

This is one of my absolute favorite recipes for just about any occasion. When entertaining, it is the perfect option because it takes little time to prepare and tastes far too impressive given the minimal skills required to make it. Another advantage is that it is easy to alter and personalize. Experiment with different spices, [...]

Last night we had the very distinct pleasure of having the Beer Lass herself, Suzanne Woods, join us to present Sly Fox beers. Sly Fox is (re)pioneering beers in cans, and Suzy was showing off four of them last night. Lets get to it. Royal Weisse with Queso Leonora: A traditional, Bavarian-style wheat beer made [...]

Wednesday night we were happy to have Victory Brewing join us for a second time. Pete was good enough to volunteer his time and pour some outrageously good beer, and we came up with some pretty rocking pairings. Lets get to it! Whirlwind Witbier with Andante Dairy Largo: Whirlwind is made with an imported Belgian [...]

Here is what we did with them: Sawtooth Ale with Trugole: This American-Style ESB is nutty, caramely [...]

Many thanks to Peter “Bear” Brett for coming by on short notice to represent Lancaster Brewing Company on Wednesday. If you don’t know Bear, come by next week when he will be helping out Roy Pitz Brewing. He is a joy of a human being, and is chocked full of knowledge and a willingness to [...]

To address this meal injustice we have in our home an event called “breakfast for dinner.” This allows us to appreciate the deliciousness [...]
How fortunate are we? Iron Hill, winner of Best Large Brewpub at the World Beer Cup in Chicago last week, joined us last night to sample some of the beers that helped them claim the award. Two rather unconventional pairings were featured, but everything worked, and as usual, a good time was had by all. [...]
