We are back with part 2 of episode 2 of The Beerdeding Tastings. I sit down with my home boy Antwon AKA Chef Twon. We pour up some beer and fry up some shrimp and salmon and talk life as chef from the beginnings to his biggest pet peeve when it comes to dating as a chef. We even talk about how the beers pair well with the the food we ate!

Beers drank on this episode:

Untitled Art and Modist Brewing- Nelson Sauvignon Blanc IPA

IPA/Wine brewed in Collaboration with Modist Brewing. An IPA brewed with Hallertau Blanc & Nelson Sauvin hops to complement the over 1000 Gallons Sauvignon Blanc Wine Juice that is added at the last minute of the brewing process to blur the lines of where beer ends and wines starts

ABV: 7%

Black Abbey- Utility Vacation Kolsch Style ale w/ blueberries

Who’s ready to chill out and get relaxed? Utility Vacation celebrates the beginning of summer and the arrival of “time off time”! This german-style ale doesn’t stray far from its classic crisp, clean, easy drinking roots, but the addition of blueberries to the ferment gives a rich purple color and just enough blueberry flavor and aroma to make you say “Now that's awesome!” Pairs well with condo cookouts, beach blankets and corn hole games.

ABV: 5.3%

Fat Bottom- Teddy Loves Pilsner

Teddy Loves Pilsner is our take on a German-style Pilsner and offers an easy-drinking style that pils drinkers know and love, with a mild hop presence for a refreshing flavor.

ABV: 4.4%

Paulaner Hefe-weizen

It’s the #1 wheat beer in Germany and one of the world’s favorites. In fact, beer experts call it a masterpiece. In developing this beer, the Paulaner brewmasters have perfected a unique technique with “yeast suspension,” resulting in a uniform, slightly cloudy appearance, consistent quality, and perfect taste.

ABV: 5.5%
