I like pie
What to do with a bunch of huge, fresh Pink Caspian Heirlooms culled from our garden?
Make pie!That would be with a filling of said Heirlooms, cheese (wensleydale, chevre & manchego), green onion and fresh basil & thyme baked into a rich buttery pate sucre crust. Mmmmm.
Serve with a malty beer such as Maibock (especially if made by Mr Cicerone) or a Munich Dunkel, such as Ettaler Kloster Dunkel.

This Week At Fort Street
From Doug:
How about a new beer to help cure the end of summer blues? This Thursday, September 10th at 8ish p.m., we'll be tapping "Rice & Rye Tri-PA". As the name might imply, it's an IPA made with rice and rye. Somehow, that just didn't seem interesting enough, so I decided to use three different yeast strains as well. If you were fortunate enough to have "Devilish Doug", "Backyard IPA", and "Sai What?", then you've had all three yeast strains before. My initial thoughts are that it's an orgasmic explosion of deliciousness. At 9% ABV, it'll also get ya drunk! As usual, we'll have some fabulous prizes for a few lucky folks in attendance for the tapping.

I will just add....
...that even though I'm not a huge dessert person, the herb-infused creme caramel combined with Collaboration Holiday Ale had me swooning with rapture.
