Another season, another cask festival at Central City!
This time I got there early and was the first to sample some of the casks (as you can see above).
I realized I should probably eat, so I took it upon myself to create my own pairing...
Crispy Cheese Sticks – Breaded and deep fried stout cheddar. Made from Red Racer Stout and hand crafted at The Farm House Natural Cheeses in Agassiz. Served with a jalepeno blueberry sauce.
Which I paired with the Storm Brewing - Raspberry ESB...and it was awesome esp with the blueberry compote!
Another successful festival, and I'm already looking forward to the next one! Thanks for being awesome Central City!
