Monthly Featured Pairing

30th Anniversary Ale With Beer-Braised Short Rib

Thirty years in the biz calls for a really (really) big beer to celebrate – and a dish worthy of being paired with it! Our barrel-aged anniversary ale has roasted malt flavors which complement the braised beef and demi-glace. The rich potato cake is hearty enough to stand up to the beer’s delightfully boozy finish.
