Winter ales will take center stage at SanTan Brewing’s monthly Tuesday Night Tasting at 6:30 p.m. Dec. 1.
SanTan’s popular seasonal Winter Warmer (pictured) will join two other creations made especially for the event by brewmaster Anthony Canecchia: a smoked porter and a coffee stout.
J.R. Wheeler, the Arizona rep for Colorado-based Odell Brewing, will be the featured guest. He’ll provide Odell’s Isolation Ale.
The five courses and beer pairings:
• Spinach salad with white chocolate chips and almonds (Pete’s Wicked Winter Brew)
• Chorizo-stuffed medjool dates wrapped in bacon (Isolation Ale)
• Buffalo chili and cornbread (smoked porter)
• Braised short ribs with sweet potato puree (Winter Warmer)
• Cinnamon coffee cake (coffee stout)
Cost is $25 per person. Reservations: (480) 917-8700.
