Pairing #1

Spirit Fingers - Japanese-style lager brewed with rice, persimmon, ginger and orange peel

16 oz. can, paired with Spicy Soy Chicharrons - "The Chicharrons will balance out the ginger and orange peel flavor from the beer and will also add a nice salty yet spicy note with the soy and wasabi." - Chef Zach

                            

Pairing #2

Double Barrel-Aged 120 Minute IPA – Aged in Samuel Adams’ Utopias & Rye Whiskey barrels

375 ml. bottle, paired with House Smoked Mixed Nuts with Sea Salt - "This pairing is a homerun when we tried our test batch. The smoke flavor on the nuts is the perfect amount to help tame the booziness of the 120 Minute." - Chef Zach

"We typically do single-barrel releases for our barrel-aged beers, meaning one type of barrel is used for all the beer. We had previously released Utopias Barrel-Aged 120 Minute IPA, which had wonderful sherry and caramel notes. We had also previously released several versions of Rye Barrel-Aged 120 Minute IPA. The spiciness of the rye nicely complements the sweetness of the 120. We decided to bring both elements into this release with a blend of 2 types of barrels: Utopias and Sagamore Rye Whiskey." - Brewmaster Mark 

Pairing #3

Palo Santo - Palo Santo Marron distilled & aged in used Port Barrels, Bourbon Barrels, and Brandy Barrels for 46 months

100 ml bottle, paired with Double Chocolate Cherry Cookies - "Not often do you come across a dessert paired with Whiskey. We decided to take a chance. The sweetness from the cookie helps brings out the Port Barrel and Brandy flavor. The chocolate chips and dark cocoa powder used in the cookie help bring out the vanilla note in the whiskey, not only in the taste but on the nose." - Chef Zach

"Never look a gift horse in the mouth. The brewery asked us if we wanted some Palo wash to distill and we said ‘sure”. We had no idea how it was going to turn out (these odd distillations don’t always produce a good product) but this was very good, particularly the Port barrel finished spirit. It’s near and dear to me because it was one of the first distillations I did after being hired in 2017. Tropical and candied fruits, grilled pineapple. Marshmallow. Very different than our other whiskeys and very rare. Only three barrels exist." -  Distiller Darren
