Schlafly Brew Master Beer Dinner

I have attended a couple of Brew Master Beer Dinners in the past, but I was especially looking forward to this one since Schlafly is one of my (local) favorite breweries. While this one wasn’t as fancy as the ones in the past, I really did enjoy PW Pizza as the food host since I really enjoy their pizza so much.

These PW Pizza beer dinner are released priced at $24.99 (before tax and tip added when you pay) and a reasonable four course are served. I really thought I could pace myself, but I still ended up quite full. There was enough pizza for everyone to have 2-3 slices for the pizza courses and I probably could have stopped at 2 slices each. I should have saved more room for dessert!

The first course was well paired with the Kolsch paired with the Mixed Greens. Kolsch is light enough for me to drink regularly so of course it’s the salad course. Hehe

My favorite pizza was the Shrimp and Spinach since it was on the Honey Wheat Crust, although the second pizza tasted much like BBQ chicken, which I love, but I had to pick off all the bacon bits. While I enjoyed the Oktoberfest, neither Patience nor I could stand the Tasmanian IPA. You either love the hoppy stuff or you don’t!

And pumpkin crème brulee…yes..it tasted just as delicious as it sounds! It was paired with a Schwarzbier (which means dark beer) and I was surprised that a heavier beer could have such a smooth finish.

For you beer lovers, everyone got a tasting and often we poured our own samples from a pitcher for the whole table. So there was definitely no shortage of beer!
