"Nives": This beer's spice and depth are best explored alongside the rich and aromatic layers of a Moroccan lamb tagine or the complex flavors of a Mexican mole Poblano, where the spices commune with the beer's bold character.
"Divina": Its gentleness calls for the accompaniment of delicate flavors such as sole meunière, lightly grilled chicken with lemon, or a simple, refined pasta adorned with butter and sage, elevating the meal's inherent subtleties.
"Alma": Sweet and nutty, Alma finds its soulmates in dishes like roasted duck with a honey glaze or a carefully curated cheese board featuring soft Gorgonzola Dolce and crunchy walnuts. Each bite harmonizes with the beer's warmth.
"Caesar": The balance and breadth of this amber ale make it a versatile companion, perfectly suited to a pizza fresh from the wood fire, laden with caramelized onions and fennel sausage, or the smoky flavors of smoked Gouda cheese.
"Asia": Rich and robust, Asia pairs splendidly with the bold flavors of pork belly bao buns or the creamy, fruity notes of a baked Camembert accompanied by fig chutney, creating a fusion of tastes and textures.
"Chanda": Light and refreshing, Chanda gracefully complements the simplicity of a Caprese salad, the elegance of a shrimp cocktail, or the rustic charm of lemon and herb-roasted chicken, bringing out the zest in each dish.
"Diva Gold": The beer's sparkling effervescence and delicate nature are a match for the sweet scallops' seared golden brown, the crisp zest of a green papaya salad, or the classic simplicity of bruschetta with juicy tomatoes and fragrant basil.
"Dorita": This blonde ale's versatility shines with light, and refreshing meals such as a crisp pear and arugula salad or tender, grilled white fish accentuated with a dash of lime, enhancing the meal's freshness.
"Guenda": Perfect for the lighter palate, Guenda pairs beautifully with delicate seafood pasta, a grilled vegetable platter, or a fresh and tangy goat cheese salad dressed in a citrus vinaigrette.
"Lolah": The caramel and malt nuances of Lolah are wonderfully suited to dishes like sweetly roasted root vegetables or a succulent maple-glazed pork chop, where the earthy flavors are in delightful conversation with the beer.
"Luce": Ideal for rich, hearty meals, Luce complements the smoky barbecue of ribs, the spicy kick of a jambalaya, or a slice of pecan pie, enhancing the deep flavors and sweet notes.
"Melanie": This dark ale finds its pairing perfection in the richness of beef and stout pie, the selection of a charcuterie board laden with aged meats and cheeses, or the sweetness of a dark chocolate dessert.
"Sophie": The warm caramel notes of this red ale are a natural fit for the savory depth of a roast beef sandwich with horseradish cream or the spicy tang of buffalo chicken wings, offering a dance of flavors with every sip.
"BIOnda": Reflecting the beer's organic nature, the best pairings are with clean, fresh dishes such as a grilled vegetable orzo salad or a tender, pan-seared trout, finished with a squeeze of lemon to highlight the beer's crisp finish.
