What We Liked This Week
By Chef Brian
So flavored beers are hit or miss for me. Most often a miss. They seem to either be too heavy-handed with the flavoring or too artificial tasting or both. Not a good combination. So when a grapefruit hefeweizen from Schofferhofer was brought by I was understandably skeptical. I was wrong. This is a beer for Spring and Summer for sure. It was paired with a dessert I made for a dinner. Grapefruit cake with grapefruit icing and it went amazingly well. I like beer with dessert over wine most of the time and this fit perfectly. It’s a low ABV beer at 2.5% but is so refreshing and clean you’ll never miss it. Look for it and pick up a 4-pack. Enjoy.
