Traditional craft-brewed beer can transform a meal from everyday to
extraordinary. It's an affordable, accessible luxury. Yet most
people are only familiar with the mass-market variety. Have you
tasted the real thing? In The Brewmaster's Table, Garrett Oliver,
America's foremost authority on beer and brewmaster of the
acclaimed Brooklyn Brewery, reveals why real beer is the perfect
partner to any dining experience. He explains how beer is made,
relays its fascinating history, and, accompanied by Denny Tillman's
exquisite photographs, conducts an insider's tour through the
amazing range of flavors displayed by distinct styles of beer from
around the world. Most important, he shows how real beer, which is
far more versatile than wine, intensifies flavors when it's
appropriately paired with foods, creating brilliant matches most
people have never imagined: a brightly citric Belgian wheat beer
with a goat cheese salad, a sharply aromatic pale ale to complement
spicy tacos, an earthy German bock beer to match a porcini risotto,
even a fruity framboise to accompany a slice of chocolate truffle
cake. Whether you're a beer aficionado, a passionate cook, or just
someone who loves a great dinner, this book will indeed be a
revelation.
