HARVEST RESTAURANT HOSTS
FOUR COURSE BEER DINNER
Tuesday, March 27th, four courses paired, and prepared
with New Holland Craft Beers

Louisville, KY – March 16th, 2012 – Until a few years ago, it was accepted wisdom that wine was the beverage that one paired with dinner dishes. The continued rise of Craft Beer is changing that, and Chefs Coby Ming and Patty Knight of Harvest (semi-finalist for James Beard Foundation Best New Restaurant in America) have crafted a locally source menu that certainly rises to the occasion.

On Tuesday, March 27th, Harvest will host a New Holland Beer Dinner, featuring a four-course meal of special dishes designed to pair with specific New Holland beers, and in some cases using beer as an ingredient. Opening course of Beer Cheese Soup with pretzel bruschetta and pickled onion jam is paired with New Holland’s “Saison”, a light styled lager with notes of lemon and pepper. A citrusy “Imperial Hatter”, made with a West Coast hops, offers a pleasant contrast to the spicy North African inspired Chicken Merguez Sausage with mustard glaze, spicy greens and harissa deviled egg. The Short Ribs are paired with, and actually braised in “Poet”, a mellow oatmeal Stout.

Executive Pastry Chef Patty Knight’s desserts - Candied Bacon Praline, Chocolate Ginger Macaroons, Bourbon Truffle, and Dragon’s Milk Truffle - pair particularly well with the “Dragon’s Milk” Bourbon barrel aged stout with its notes of Chocolate and Vanilla.

What: Four course New Holland Beer Dinner, $45/pp

When: Tuesday, March 27th, one seating at 6:00PM

Where: Harvest is located at 624 East Market Street, and is open for lunch and dinner, Tuesday through Saturday, and weekend brunch. www.harvestlouisville.com. Reservations recommended, (502) 384-9090, or through OpenTable.com.

That was the news release that I edited out of my post on the basis of hype language. (Not Ivor! I think the brewery had a New York PR guy send out the release.)

you called it, Robin- Yes, that's the case. I could l edit my post, but I find it interesting that you left the Media contact info in... .

It should be a great dinner!

Don't worry about it, Deb, you just made me chuckle. Actually, I did not mean to leave the media contact in ... carelessness on my part, I generally take it out not as snark but because it isn't really intended for release. I'll edit it now.

("The part about nobody thought of pairing food and beer until recently tells us a lot more about the PR people than it does about factual information. )
