The Study of fermentation and its marriage with cooking<\/p>

Multi-Course Beer-Paired Dinners<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

For three years I produced a themed dinner series, Culinary Zymurgy, at my favorite local brewery, Middleton Brewing, in San Marcos, TX. Each course was paired with one of their craft brews. Food and drink come together, transforming each other into a dynamic and harmonious sublime experience. During that time I created 25 unique menus. Here is a sample:<\/p>\n<\/p>
