In this third episode of Pairings, we explored sour and wild beers. Guests on the show included Joe Osborne of Avery Brewing Company, Jeff Halvorson of Where The Wild Beers Are, and Michael Agnew of A Perfect Pint.

Beers and their pairings:
Rodenbach Grand Cru - paired with Cherry Blossom Girl by Air
New Belgium La Folie - paired with Sour Times by Portishead
New Belgium Clutch - paired with Electric Worry by Clutch and Butterflies and Hurricanes by Muse.
Surly 5 - paired with Take 5 from the Dave Brubeck Quartet
Avery Eremita - paired with Emma, Get Me A Lemon by The Walkmen
Flat Earth Brewing Extra Medium - paired with A Happy Medium by Malcolm Middleton


Hear the entire show here:


A couple of notes about the beers: Avery's Eremita is/was available only in the Tap Room at the brewery in Boulder, Colorado. And after brewing Extra Medium, Flat Earth experienced a wild yeast take-over, and it sounds like they aren't planning on brewing Extra Medium again.


And thanks to Northern Brewer home brew supplies for supporting this show!
