Beer Fox Tip of the Week:

For a quick turkey basting sauce that has zest and style, melt 3/4 C. of butter. Blend with one 12-ounce bottle of Belgian witbier, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 2 tablespoons Sweet-and-Sour sauce, 1/4 Cup soy sauce, and a teaspoon of Dijon Mustard. Whisk-in a few healthy pinches of rosemary, sage, parsley and thyme.

Use as a basting sauce for turkey breast, brushing every 15 minutes until crisp and caramelized.

Beer News

Debate can be fun, especially when it is debate over the flavors in a seasonal beer. The only way to satisfy your argument is to do taste evaluations on as many beers as you can find. Pumpkin Ales are a good example. Some brewers say the flavors are not really pumpkin, but nutmeg, cinnamon, clove and other spices. Do your own taste test.

The Reverend - Avery Brewing Company, Boulder, Colorado, USA

Style: Quadrupel

Brilliant orange copper shines forth beneath a solid white, frothy head. Dark fruits - cherries, plums, raisins and boysenberries - mix with sweet, toffee malts and formidable body of alcohol - rum and sherry. Fresh hop presence is enhanced by delicate carbonation and a long, dry finish. Incredible!

Cheers!
