Just a quick one for y'all today -
Over the weekend I was at a bar, and had an interesting experience I wanted to share.
Before I got to the bar, I was chewing mint-flavored gum. I got a pint of Overcast, swallowed the gum, and took a hearty sip.
I was amazed! The malt came through clearly, with a definite cocoa/chocolate flavor, and the coffee and roast were relegated to a minor role as a result. For the entire pint, I was savoring an aspect of the Overcast presentation I'd never before been able to appreciate properly.
So now I'm curious - are there other foods or drinks that highlight specific components of other beers? Or did I happen to luck out with mint and coffee stout? I'll do some research and find out.
