Aged Brau Bros Rainwater @Ngon

It’s getting cold again and I’m making some comfort food and pairing it with beers this weekend.

We are tapping our Brau Brothers Rainwater, an oak-aged imperial stout that we’ve been aging since last year.

Features this weekend:

Curry butternut squash soup

Banana leaf steamed Arctic Char, sweet potatoes, shallots & garden carrots with a lime curry broth (pairs well with Lift Bridge Farmgirl)

Thit Kho: Vietnamese braised pork using Fischer Farms pork shank and boiled free range eggs. Served with fingerling potatoes, onions & mustard greens over rice. (pairs well with the Brau Brothers Rainwater)

Cheers, Hai

Darkness Keg Release

D-Day is coming up soon and surely a good time will be had by all. But if you can’t make it, desire some of the goodness straight from the keg or simply find yourself without plans next Tuesday, then check out Joe’s Garage. They’ll be hosting the Darkeness keg release, including Darkness pairings (the menu is currently in progress) and Wet on tap as well.
