Ready to explore these bold beer and food pairings? Whether you’re into rich stouts or hoppy TIPAs, there’s a perfect bite to match every brew.

Beer Food Pairing: Crystale Malt Wine with Aged Cheese

This Crystale Malt Wine is bold and sweet, with a complex body that’s reminiscent of a barleywine. Pair this beer with aged crumbled cheese and fig compote for the perfect balance of savory and sweet. And if you really want to indulge, add a piece of dark chocolate – it’s the ultimate flavor explosion!

Vegetarian Option: This pairing is already vegetarian-friendly. For an extra twist, you can swap out the cheese for vegan cheese and serve with roasted nuts like walnuts or almonds to add richness.

Beer Food Pairing: Belgian Triple IPA with Mussels and Fresh Fries

A strong Belgian TIPA that offers both fruitiness and a hint of hop bitterness is the perfect match for spiced mussels and fresh fries with aioli. The Belgian character of the TIPA pairs wonderfully with seafood, while the bitterness cuts through the fat of the fries. A classic, but with a Moersleutel twist!

Vegetarian Option: Swap the mussels for roasted mushrooms (such as portobello or shiitake) with a bit of smoked paprika for that same savory depth. Serve with the crispy fries for that perfect balance.

Beer Food Pairing: Argonated Export Stout with Toffee Pudding

The Argonated Export Stout is a super smooth stout that truly showcases its complexity thanks to the addition of argon. It has a velvety texture that pairs perfectly with the rich, sticky toffee pudding. The caramel and coffee notes in the stout make this the perfect dessert pairing.

Vegetarian Option: This pairing is also vegetarian-friendly! For a twist, try vegan sticky toffee pudding, using plant-based butter and a flaxseed egg replacement – it’s equally rich and decadent!

Beer Food Pairing: Maple Bacon Pancake Stout with Smokey Chicken Wings

And now, a combination that will blow your taste buds away: smokey chicken wings with Maple Bacon Pancake Stout. The smoky and spiced flavors of the chicken wings are beautifully complemented by the sweet, smoky tones of the beer. It’s the ultimate balance of savory and sweet, with a hefty dose of smokiness to tie everything together.

Vegetarian Option: For a meatless version, swap the chicken wings for smoky grilled cauliflower steaks or tempeh strips. The smokiness and spiciness of these vegetarian alternatives pair perfectly with the rich, maple-sweet beer.

Beer Food Pairing: Indulgence 24 with pineapple with dark rum Caramel Sauce

For Indulgence 24, with its tropical sweetness, barrel complexity, and deep molasses-coconut-licorice profile, you’ll want a pairing that complements its rich, dessert-like qualities without overpowering them.

Grilled pineapple with dark rum caramel sauce. The natural sweetness and slight acidity of grilled pineapple cut through the beer’s thick body, while a drizzle of dark rum caramel ties in beautifully with the molasses, coconut, and boozy notes from the Rhum Clement barrels. Serve warm for an indulgent pairing that mirrors the beer’s tropical, dessert-like complexity.

Vegetarian Option: Keep it fully plant-based by using coconut cream in the caramel sauce and grilling with vegan butter or oil. Optional sprinkle of toasted coconut for extra flair.
