Pairings | Viru lager

Ideas for a beer and game menu

Posted on October 28 2009 at 07:06

I've been invited to a game dinner at Brown's hotel in Mayfair next week at which every course is matched with a beer or a perry. I can't make it but thought you'd be interested in the pairings (my notes in italics):

Magnificently large pork chop @guntonarms last night cooked over an open fire. Properly fatty and deliciously smoky. Don’t often order meat in a restaurant these days but that was irresistible. Could have fed two (well, maybe not …) . . . #pork #porkchop #grill #guntonarms #norfolkPhenomenal Belgian beers @the.portcullis #belgianbeerfestival with @jennychandleruk and Mr B. Mopped up with a hearty plate of beef stew and chips. Beers you don’t normally find here so nip round there tonight if you’re in #Bristol. . . . #beer #belgianbeer #stbernardus #westvleteren #vleteren #affligemtripel #pub #drinklocalSuper-delicate Dorset crab tart @wildhoneystjames last night which was paired with this extraordinarily deep-coloured vintage rosé champagne from @moetchandon. Brilliant menu (the confit chicken with ceps, macaroni and Parmesan was amazing with a 1998 from the grand vintage collection), extraordinary wines. You didn’t think Moet made this complex style of champagne? Nor did I tbh. And cheaper than DP - if you can get your hands on them! #guest . . . #champagne #vintagechampagne #rosechampagne #crab #moet #wine #instawine #winestagramLove this post from my son @wjjbeckett (on the right). He and Huw first met when they were 11! “New favourite pic of me and Huw 34 years later and still probably laughing at something stupid that happened when we were 14” Bet they didn’t imagine they’d be sitting there with cups of tea either … #hawksmoor #childhoodfriends #bff #proudmum Follow on Instagram
