Elote Pilsner Creamy Polenta with Grilled Tajin Lime Shrimp and Halloumi Sometimes it feels as if my recipes are just a long string of predictive text that I figure out how to make into a meal. Or I keep trying one-up myself until I can’t fit anything else in a bowl, but it’s how I… Read More
Burrata Burrito with Smoked Salmon and Creamy Beer Pesto Let’s do something fun, something that doesn’t require a face mask and hand sanitizer. Find your quarantine person and somehow bring up that you want to do a cooking challenge, you against them. But, there are some rules of course. Rule 1: The dish can’t take… Read More
Hot Honey Beer Prawns I have a confession. This was supposed to be for dinner but instead I ate it over the sink and called it “lunch” as if I hadn’t already eaten. This would drive you crazy if you had to put up with me on a daily basis, I have no ability to… Read More
Stout Creole Gumbo over Smokey Cheddar Grits This is something you need to be warned about. At least I did and I think we are alike, you and I. When I first started to dive into trying to figure out this food and cooking thing I didn’t know how important some things were, because not… Read More
Broiled Salmon with IPA Thai Chili Sauce This is one of those ways that I hide. I pretend like I have it all together (I super don’t), but I can crank out a meal in less than 15 minutes so that makes me feel like I’m an actual grown-up. We all have our things. I… Read More
Grilled Beer Butter Scallops with Cherry Salsa, with a grill or a grill pan! Let’s talk scallops for a second. I know, I’ve given you this lecture before but it’s been a while. And I can’t just go around assuming you remember everything I say, I forget half of what I say on a daily… Read More
Honey Beer Glazed Salmon with Mango Avocado Salsa I need this, it’s rather necessary. Since I spend my life contractually obligated to drink beer and eat foods like this and this, I need recipes like this Salmon with Mango Avocado Salsa. For the sake of my liver and my skinny jeans, it’s important. But I… Read More

All ideas, words, and opinions are my own Beer is communal. It’s more than a beverage, it’s the center of a gathering. Whenever I travel I always bring back beer,… Read More
Salmon in Italian Beer Cream Sauce is a simple, one pot, crazy delicious way to make dinner in under 20 minutes. It’s fitting, don’t you think? A dish that’s both easy and transitional, an echo of the month in a way. September is the most transitional of all months, far more than January and closely followed… Read More
Crab Tarts with Saison Béarnaise Sauce This is because I don’t care. I don’t care that “blogging is dead,” so says everyone who spikes higher on SEO than I do. I don’t care that this is not a very googleable recipe, therefore it won’t earn me much incoming search engine traffic. Your capacity to care… Read More
Garlic Sriracha Beer Steamed Mussels This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of BC Ale Trail and Tourism New West, Discover Surrey and Tourism Delta. All opinions and text are mine. TO COME Day two began how all days should begin: with fried chicken. River Market in New West is a destination… Read More
Grilled Garlic Beer Butter Lobster I needed a code word, a signal that it was too much. It was devised as a way to tell me that I needed to knock it down a few pegs. When I drink, I get a little less reserved and a little (a lot) more inappropriate. The people in… Read More
Beer Battered Cod Po’ Boy Sliders Island beer feels different. The patio is always full of people who don’t just know the beer, they know the story. They know the owners, the jobs they held before the lure of the frustration of brewing on a tiny system in the middle of an ocean pulled them… Read More
15 Minute Dinner: Beer Steamer Clam Linguini I’m on a layover in Salt Lake right now, in an airport bar resisting the urge to hair-of-the-dog my way out of sleep deprivation and a small sprinkling of a hangover. I’m going to tell you something that will make you think I’m crazy, but I already rolled… Read More
Sriracha Chip Crab Cakes with Spicy IPA Hollandaise We like craft beer because we like things that are way better. Ingredients matter to us, so does flavor. We’ve decided to step away from the mass produced in favor of what’s a little left of center, a little less common, and a little more interesting. That’s… Read More
Bacon Beer Shrimp with Beer Cheese Grits Every few months I find myself here. In a brewery, doing my best to learn how to turn what some see as an ugly industrial space with bad lighting into beautiful photos. Mostly, I’m a self-taught photographer. I took classes, read books, watched a decades worth of YouTube videos,… Read More
This, in one form or another, is my go-to dinner. It’s a pantry recipe and one of the main reasons I always have coconut milk on hand. I’ve made it with every imaginable protein, and even mushrooms when I’m the mood to only consume plants. I’ve replaced the chard with spinach, arugula, basil and even… Read More
Coconut Beer Steamer Clam Chowder I remember the walls were dirty. Before he tried to push the glass table through my torso, I could only focus on the stains spread like a grease constellation across the Navajo White walls of the government subsidized apartment I was trapped in. His mom’s girlfriend wrapped her dark, sinewy… Read More
