DC Beer Week at Little Miss Whiskey's

They've got two terrific events coming up. The first is a tasting of nine different German beer styles with a beer guru. The second is a multi-course tasting menu that, beyond offering you some awesome sounding food, gives you a chance to sample the cooking of Queen Vic Chef  Adams Stein before the Queen Vic even opens.

BEER TASTING
at Little Miss Whiskey’s Golden Dollar
SUNDAY, 8/22 at 8 PM
w/ BERNIE VAN ORDER

Bernie Van Order’s lifelong career in brewing has taken him from Richmond to Idaho. Currently he is the DC region representative for Great Lakes Brewing and he is always happy to share his extensive wealth of knowledge on the subject of beer. Please join us as he leads us through a tasting of 9 German styles w/ history and anecdotes for each. Spots are limited so you are encouraged to stop by Little Miss Whiskey’s to buy your ticket in advance.

CHEF ADAM STEIN OF QUEEN VIC PRESENTS A SPECIAL FOUR COURSE FOOD AND BEER PAIRING MENU:
$20 for four pairings
6 PM to 8 PM on Tuesday, 8/24
at Little Miss Whiskey’s Golden Dollar

Salad of Pickled Clam & Thinly Sliced Pork Loin w/ Cilantro, Thai Basil & Citrus Vinaigrette paired w/ Hofbrau Hefe-Weizen this light and crisp wheat beer has a frothy mouth feel and traditional weissbier flavors of banana and clove. Lemon citrus notes cleanse the palate
Tacos de Lengua w/ Cabbage Slaw & Grilled Chile Salsa paired w/ Paulanor Salvator
the almost-sweet, caramel malt backbone of this rich doppelback blends nicely w/ this potent and savory dish

Korean Style Short Ribs w/ Bali Pepper & Ginger Beer Marinade, served w/ Fresh Kimchi paired w/ Weyerbacher Double Simcoe IPA
massive and chewy citrus fruit hops from this double IPA should stand up to the overwhelming flavors delivered by the ribs and kimchi

Sweet Corncakes & Oatmeal Stout Custard sauced w/ Charred Peach Caramel paired w/ Hoppin Frog B.O.R.I.S The Crusher Oatmeal-Imperial Stout
in truth, the only possible finish to the preceding palate-shredding combo. Please sample the stout before the dessert to note how dramatically the flavors change after pairing

In order to properly prepare, we can only serve the full tasting of four courses for $20. Portions are small, servings of beer are 4-5 ounces. Spots are limited so we encourage you to purchase your ticket in advance from the bar at Little Miss Whiskey’s Golden Dollar. We hope you enjoy this event as much as we enjoy putting it together. Thank you!
