Twisted Pine to Host Extraordinary Food and Beer Event

December 22, 2009 - What: Twisted Pine Brewing Company is opening up its doors to cooks in Boulder, asking them to create memorable dishes incorporating Twisted Pine Beer as an ingredient. The event will feature 20 unique beer dishes, a contest judged by 3 local famed chefs and of course, plenty of delicious handcrafted beer. Attendees will have the opportunity to bump shoulders with brewers, chefs, foodies and beer geeks from across the Front Range. When: Tuesday, January 12, 2010 - 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM Where: Twisted Pine Brewery 3201 Walnut St Suite A Boulder CO, 80301 Why: As the American palate becomes more sophisticated, more and more chefs across the country have begun incorporating beer into their dishes as a way of making them more complex and interesting. Beer has long been used as an ingredient in Belgian, English, Irish and German cooking but is coming to the forefront in American Dining as well. The Kitchen, in Boulder, even has a "beer sommelier" on staff to help you select the right beer to go with your meal. This event gives the general public the opportunity to experience firsthand the marriage of craft beer and food in ways that we never could have imagined. Proceeds will be donated to the Emergency Family Assistance Association.
