At a recent company bottle share we polled our team members and asked, "What three beers would you choose to pair with a Holiday-style meal and why?" The answers were so good we had to share with you!
This food forward pairing set features two 750-ml. bottles and one 4-pack of 16oz cans of the following:
Cobbled Together
Bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout with blackberries, blueberries, and Tahitian vanilla beans | 15.5%
"Cheesecake, cheesecake, cheesecake...ideally with a similar berry topping. The chocolate notes of the beer along with it's heavier mouthfeel marry perectly with the creaminess of the cheesecake."
Tart of Darkness with Raspberry and Vanilla
Bourbon barrel-aged sour stout with raspberries and vanilla beans | 7.1%
"I almost said cheesecake here as well, but I'm gonna suggest a cranberry crumble pie or a dark cherry crumble pie. The tartness of the cranberries will play nicely with the tartness of the sour beer allowing those notes of chocolate and vanilla to shine alongside the sweetness of the pie."
S'moreo
Bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout with vegan marshmallows, graham crackers, vanilla beans, and sandwich cookies | 15.6%
"Chocolate pecan pie with bourbon or a chocolate bourbon tart, especially if there is a graham cracker crust. For me the approach here is to match like flavors."
- Includes 3 x 750-ml. bottles
