Very nice! I need to see if I can find a sampler locally.

Nice looking stuff Albert

Travis (BeerAdvocate) hit me a week ago with home-brewed beer and Oliva cigars!!! I figured this could be a great combination... I was right!!!

Travis' Seven Field's Dry Hop IPA was a hopfest!!! The first few sips offered a strong hops punch and a pleasant bitterness!!! Then it smoothed out with good balance of citrus and some pine!!! Seven Fields IPA paired perfectly with the Oliva Connecticut Robusto!!! The sweetness from the cigar paired nicely with the citrus of the ale!!!

Thanks so much Travis!!!

Had a RASCC with a 60-Min IPA yesterday. Great combo, but I have yet to find anything that DOESN'T go with the 60-Min. And I mean ANYTHING.

X2! I love the Dogfish Head. I just tried their seasonal chickory stout today and it was pretty awesome. Would have paired well with a RASS if I still had any

I haven't tried it yet, but that seems like a match made in heaven--my favorite cc with one of my favorite IPAs!

I had the good fortune of visiting the DFH Brewery a few months ago. Got pictures around somewhere that I can post. First time I had their Palo Santo Marron, Burton Baton & Pangaea. Great stuff! I picked up a big bottle of Theobroma last weekend, should be an interesting brew:

Beef on the rotisserie while consuming this great pair . I'm gonna go find that St.Bernardus sampler real soon .

kaisersozei · 11-25-2009, 07:11 AM

A Hobgoblin Dark English Ale & an Illusione Epernay Le Grande. Not a bad combination, but the leathery/woody Epernay could have benefitted from something sweeter--maybe a stout or barleywine.

And what's with the 11.2 oz beer? I got gypped out of 0.8 oz!

kaisersozei · 12-01-2009, 12:07 PM

Here's my pairing from the weekend: a CAO Black while cooking up my world famous turkey bone gumbo!

Which quickly turned into this pairing:

Cigar & beer were good, but the gumbo was fantastic (if I do say so myself!)

Montano · 12-01-2009, 03:26 PM

Finished the bottle, now it's time for a smoke

Don't get the flame too close to your mouth!!!

Had this the day before the big blizzard ... I love the ESG more so then the Opus now..

Skywalker · 12-11-2009, 09:56 AM

I know that it is tempting to show "pairs" other than cigar/drink pairs, but please keep it the wishes of the op!!!

Thank you!!!
