A DELICIOUS FINISH
What should you serve with it?
Beer
Dark lager, porter or American amber ale
The sweet, smoky glaze needs malt character and balanced bitterness. Dark lager or porter echoes the caramel notes, while hops cut through the richness.
ALCOHOL-FREE OPTION
Chilled cherry juice with lime and sparkling water.
A delicious alternative that lets the food take centre stage.
