Time: 6pm
Founders Brewing Co. Beer Pairing Dinner Menu
1st Course:
Crispy Endive with Smokey Blue Cheese Dressing, Tempura Fried Habanero Honey Chicken with Wonton Crisps
*Seitan Wing for vegetarian substitute.
Beer Pairing: Mango Magnifico (Backstage Series)
10% abv, RateBeer Rating: 90
Mango Magnifico is a high-gravity fruit beer brewed with mango and a touch of habaneros to add just the right amount of heat. The delicate flavors imparted by the sweet richness of the mango are punctuated perfectly by the subtle heat of the habaneros, proving that fruit beers do not have to be one-note.
2nd Course:
Vegetable Goat Cheese Tart with Caramelized Onions, Garlic + Tomato. Drizzled with Lizard of Koz Gastrique.
Beer Pairing: Lizard of Koz (Backstage Series)
9.4% abv, *not yet rated as it's brand new
Lizard of Koz: Brewmaster Jeremy Kosmicki wanted to make the birthday of his little sister, Liz, a special one. So he did what he does best and brewed a stout using a few of her favorite ingredients: fresh Michigan blueberries, rich chocolate and vanilla aged in bourbon barrels to round out those beautiful flavors. Liz was floored and we think you will be too.
3rd Course:
Imperial Stout-Braised Turnips, Leeks + Parsnips, Sauerbraten topped with Crispy Fried Onions
* Vegetarian version will substitute the Sauerbraten with marinated portabellas.
Beer Pairing: Imperial Stout 2015
10.5% abv, RateBeer Rating: 100
This Imperial Stout is the base beer for the 2016 KBS (Kentucky Bourbon Stout). Brewed with ten varieties of malted barley, this stout is smooth as silk, yet complex and rich in body.
4th course:
House-Made Cherry Walnut Truffles
Beer Pairing: 2016 KBS
12.4% abv, RateBeer Rating: 100
KBS: An imperial stout brewed with a massive amount of coffee and chocolates, then cave-aged in oak bourbon barrels for an entire year to make sure wonderful bourbon undertones come through in the finish.
*Each pour will be roughly 6 to 8 oz and this dinner includes a 'welcome pint' of either Founders All Day IPA or Founder Porter, price at $50pp, including tax and gratuity. Each portion is 'tapas/appetizer sized'.
