Tonight at 6PM is the kick off for Ellwood Thompson's new Pairing Of The Brews each Wednesday in October. Essentially, it is fun way to learn about quality beer and how they work well with certain dishes. Of course, this isn't PBR and cold pizza, we are talking top of the line delicious beers like Bell’s paired with simple of flavorful plates created by Ellwood's head chef Josh Wood.
We were lucky to be in on the tasting last week and got a few photos that are making us hungry again.
Grilled Shrimp and Grits with a homemade Worcestershire sauce - paired with Bell’s Oktoberfest.
Braised Beef Short Rib with Beef Debris Gravy with Mashed Turnips and Parsnips garnished with Fried Celery Leaves – paired with Bell’s Best Brown Ale
Parmesan Soufle, Candied Citrus Peel and Trio of Cheese: Iberico (3 milk blend cheese), Tellegio and Drunken Goat – paired with Bell’s Two Hearted Ale
Obviously the beer didn't last long at all.
