  • 7:00 PM - 10:00 PM
    Pairing ONE: GULF YELLOWFIN TUNA: HOT OIL, SOY, SESAME, LOUISIANA CITRUS, AND CILANTRO. This delightful catch will go perfectly with a Witbier... perfect for LA TRAPPE WITTE TRAPPIST - a lightly hazy beer with a crisp finish. Pairing TWO: PECAN-SMOKED REDFISH, with STEWED LENTILS, GARLIC AIOLI, SHERRY VINEGAR and CHOPPED PECANS. This calls for a step up to an IMPERIAL WHITE ALE. GLAZEN TOREN JAN DE LICHTE is a fine example of this style and the various spices that round out this beer will dance wonderfully with the smoked fish.

  • 7:00 PM - 10:00 PM
    Pairing ONE: HONEY BRAISED VANILLA BACON with MARINATED RED CABBAGE paired with LA TRAPPE DUBBEL. This classic Trappist ale has a caramel-sweetness and soft fruit notes that are perfect for the bacon. Pairing TWO: BLOOD SAUSAGE w/ PRETZEL ROUNDS, BEER MUSTARD AND JELLY paired with YOU, ME AND EVERYONE WE KNOW from GREAT RAFT BREWING in Shreveport. This sour ale is foeder aged with blackberries and should stand off from the rich sausage.

    Pairing ONE: PEPPER RUBBED LAMB RIBS w/ CELERY MINT SAUCE. The juxtaposition of the rich lamb and mint will be perfectly mirrored in BROUWERIJ DE BRABANDERE OUD BRUIN. This classic Flanders beer blends young brown ale with an aged foeder beer to create a wonderful caramel-to-fruit-to-tart experience. Pairing TWO: CORIANDER-RUBBED BBQ TURKEY with SPICY HONEY SAUCE paired with SUBTLE ALCHEMY BLEND 001 from Creature Comforts in Athens, GA. This Blended Ale features three Saisons aged for over a year in oak barrels. As its age would suggest, it is earthy and woody with a touch of tart lemon zest.

  • 7:00 PM - 10:00 PM

The banana and graham cracker flavors will pair wonderfully with the rich malts, fruity flavors and the champagne bouquet of this Bière de Garde.

Pairing TWO: SMOKED SUMMER SAUSAGE, FIG MUSTARD, and GLUTEN-FREE BUCKWHEAT CRACKER. The smoky and bold characteristics of this bite are perfectly matched with a low-alcohol Belgian Blond Ale.

Pairing TWO: MIXED UP CHEESE paired with BOON's OUD GEUZE MARIAGE PARFAIT. This incredibly complex beer is as mysterious as "Mixed Up Cheese."

    Pairing ONE: PORK VINDALLO ROTI WITH PICKLED RED ONION matched with MORPHEUS WILD, a classically blended Sour Bruin from ALVINNE. The tangy nature of the beer should cancel out the acidity in the bite. Pairing TWO: GULF SHRIMP BIRIYANI SAFFRON RICE AND RAITA paired with EXTRA 4 from ST. BERNADUS. This easy drinking ale was purposefully designed for daily consumption and should take the edge off the "spicy rice."

    Begin with WARM SWEET POTATO KASUZUKE w/ fermented tofu: Fingerling sweet potatoes are fermented for one month in brewed sake rice and served warm with soft, fermented tofu on top.

It pairs nicely with the crisp and dry SAISON D’EPEAUTRE from Brasserie de Blaugies. /// Then, try OYAKODON - “The Mother & Child” a classic Japanese soul food dish. Our version is prepared with Wild American Steelhead Trout & its Roe. Salty and rich, it’s served over warm, fragrant sushi rice.
