Grapefruit thai pepper chicken on a bed of roquette in a soy, mint, grapefruit vinaigrette

Brew Dog's Chaos Theory (Ale)



Bitter and rich (just how I like my women). Has a sweet nose but an ale-y deep everything else. Surprisingly heavy for such an amber pour. Great!

Tomato, Basil, Shallot, Onion, Thai Chili Pepper reduction over Spaghetti

Smuttynose Short Batch #9 Rouge d’Shire



If shock tarts and not yet ripe cherries got pregnant, Smuttynose Short Batch #9 would undoubtedly be the child. Somewhat refreshing, sour through and through, this "beer" (if you can call it that) weirded me out. Try it if you are feeling experimental and have $16 to drop on a wholefoods growler, just don't get your hopes up... and don't drink too much of it or you'll have a killer stomachache.
