It's okay to challenge a customer when it comes to food and wine, but not with beer. But would such a fine menu as the one at Corbett's be possible if talented chefs had not challenged the customer?
Yes, beer is not associated with fine dining. But, craft beer sales were up 12% last year, and I'd hazard a guess that the demographic willing to spend for good beer parallels that willing to ante up for fine dining.
I have only two observations to make, and I promise to leave it alone:
(1) Read "The Brewmaster's Table" by Garrett Oliver, and ...
(2) Permit me to pair beers with Dean Corbett's cuisine some time and I'll prove what's possible.
The reason why some of you don't see the possibilities is because you haven't been exposed to them.
Over. Out.
