Round two! Duck sandwiches and doppelbock.

A couple of evenings later we made sandwiches with the leftover duck. Good chewy ciabatta buns housed leftover slices of duck, a wee bit o' fresh spinach and the rest of the onion confit mixed with a touch of mayo.
The contenders this time were (Munich's) Augustiner Maximator Doppelbock and Bell's Consecrator Doppelbock. Yeh. Both superb beers. The Maximator boasts raisin-ey notes- it's extremely rich and delicious. Bell's Consecrator dopplebock, a little dryer, was also delicious and a wee bit of a better match with our sandwiches.

(I sip Mr Cicerone's Winter Ginger Ale as I write this. O! Lucky, lucky me!)
