Mark Osbourne owner of Adroit and Omar wanted to create the perfect beer pairing with the Fratello Bianco. “Fratello Bianco is all about earthiness, cocoa, coffee notes and liquor.” said de Frias “We felt like Bianco would be fantastic for this pairing as we brewed Terminal Descent with Chocolate Malt for sweetness and Chocolate Rye for a spicy bite without the normal astringency or bitterness associated with such a deep roast.” said Osbourne.
Terminal Descent will be available at some Virginia and Maryland Total Wine stores and Adroit’s tasting room in Purcellville, VA on May 1. I look forward to trying this cigar and beer pairing — as a public service for readers of these Musings of course.
See "Beer News: Fratello Cigars And Adroit Theory Brewing Announce Terminal Descent" for more on this upcoming treat.
UPDATE: As I published this post, I saw this tweet from Adroit Theory. The beer is now available at the brewery.

Hm. I just heard that my favorite winery near Purcellville has paired with a microbrewery in said Purcellville, thus guaranteeing that I will have a horrible time deciding what to drink while taking in a spectacular view from their patio. I wonder could it be Adroit Theory.
ReplyDeleteWell, that sounds like a fun time. I'll have to look around. Have a friend in P'ville that we may have to visit. :-) There are lots of breweries out that way, have only been to a few.
