Second Course:
Oriental Glazed Pork Ribs, Grilled Sweet Corn on the Cob, Spicy Roasted Redskin Potatoes, Cucumber Mint Relish.

Mad Hatter India Pale Ale (IPA)
Mad Hatter is an IPA that explodes with hop flavors. Dry Hopping provides a distinctive and floral hop aroma, while the lively and hoppy body is subtly balanced with delicious malt notes. Hatter’s hop character makes it a great fit for spicy dishes, bitter greens and beef.

Third Course:
Double Dark Chocolate Brownies, Chef Churned Chocolate Walnut ice Cream, Mixed berry Coulis, Whipped Sweet Cream and Garden Grown Mint.

Dragon’s Milk Ale
A Barrel-aged ale with a soft and rich caramel-malt character intermingled with deep vanilla tones dancing in an oak bath. Unmistakably distinctive and hauntingly remarkable, Dragon’s Milk’s warming complexity pairs well with smoked meats and cheeses, rich desserts, or a nice cigar.
