Just check out this menu. Does it really say Smoked Beef Brisket with melted gouda pretzel bites paired with a Tighthead Chilly Water ale? That's just the beginning of an incredible dinner at Smokin' T's BBQ. My UCD brewing friend, Rachel, is a native to Evanston and her uncle is the chef! As her graduation present, he gave her this gift certificate to enjoy a truly gourmet dinner with beer pairings for each course. I was lucky enough to be invited to come along!!
Each course was presented with a variety of Tighthead beer, and both the chef and the brewmaster gave insight and commentary about the pairing. Each course was delicious, innovative, and washed down with delicious ales, maibocks, and blonds.
I think this will be good practice for cheese and beer pairings at the American Cheese Society Conference in a week!!
