What goes together better than food and beer? How about food made with beer! Recently, we have spent a lot of quality time at The Publick House restaurant in Brookline, MA, where Chef Brent has cooked some amazing dishes – some made with beer, others best accompanied by one.

First off, you need to watch Brent cook up a hearty pot of Stout Beef Stew made with a plethora of vegetables and Samuel Smith’s Imperial Stout. Add some crusty bread to this dish and a cold beer to drink and you’re golden!

Next, experience Bacon-Wrapped Cod with Smoky Mussels – so fantastic. Made with a smoky beer (Brent used a Schlenkerla Rauchbier Beer in the video), it brings a mild smoked flavor to a seafood classic.

Another comfort food favorite from The Publick House crew is a homemade Mac & Cheese. Chef Brent walks you through how to do it right – with a roux, a béchamel sauce and lots and lots of cheese. Delicious. We’re drooling just thinking about it.

And for some Beer Education, turn to Brent’s co-worker and self-proclaimed Beer Baron, Remi Johnson. Have you ever wondered what the difference is between an Oktoberfest and a Pumpkin Ale? Or why some beers are served in different types of glasses? Remi has the answers for you. Check out our Fall Beer Tasting and Beer Glassware 101 videos. And you thought only wines deserved their own special glasses. Not so, my friends.

We hope you enjoy the videos as much as we enjoyed shooting them and sampling the goods.

Thanks so much to the folks at The Publick House, 1648 Beacon Street in Brookline, MA. We encourage you to stop by and sample some of their fine Belgian beers and hearty fare.

Cheers!
