Pics - Wild Ale Dinner

Dinner was hosted by McCoy's brewmaster Keith Thompson

Chilled sorrel & split pea vichysoisse paired with Jolly Pumpin's E.S. Bam

Jolly Pumpkin's E.S.Bam: hoppy farmhouse ale with Brettanomyces - 4.7% ABV

Grilled radicchio salad with Maytag blue cheese, candied pecans & maple balsamic vinaigrette served with New Belgium's Fall Wild Ale: Abbey-style dubbel spiced with Schisandra berries, then fermented with Trappist yeast & brettanomyces - 8.5% ABV

Roulade of sole, crab and spinach with a cucumber-tomato beurre blanc with Mikkeller's It's Alive! This dish was out of control...

Mikkeller's It's Alive! Strong Belgian pale ale with brettanomyces; Mikkeller's tribute to Belgian Trappist beer legend/Kansas City collaborator Orval - 8% ABV

Goat cheese & sour cherry ice cream with Italy's Panil Barrique - triple fermented Flanders red ale (first in the tank, then in Bordeaux cognac barrels, then bottle conditioned) - 8%ABV. Yum!!!
