Guided Tastings & Food Pairings
Trevor Newberry, beer connoisseur and columnist for Birmingham Magazine, will be leading guided tastings and food pairings each day with Danner Kline of Free the Hops. Food pairings will include:

D’Agostino’s Sausage Empire – a producer of fresh local sausages served at some of Birmingham top restaurants, and sold at local farmer’s markets.

  • Italian Fennel Sausage — savory, anise, short on garlic with a hint of sweetness.
  • Italian Garlic Sausage — garlicky balanced with citrus, warm spice and nuttiness.
  • Andouille — lingering spiciness but not overpowering, plenty of garlic and pepper, medium apple wood smoke.
  • Mexican chorizo — complex combination of peppers with hint of heat balanced with sweetness and warm spice and pronounced Mexican oregano.  This one is extremely aromatic with over 20 spices.
  • Bacon — dry cured and apple wood smoked, long on salty smoke, but not overpowering with a hint of sweet.  Plenty of integrated silky fat.
