"A treasury for anyone who loves good food and great beer! Highly recommended." --Midwest Book Review What better way to master the art of pairing beer with food than by tasting? Chef and beer sommelier Tonia Wilson provides the information needed to understand how aroma, flavor and texture affect the interactions of beer and food. The book describes 35 different beer styles and pairs each with a seasonal recipe, together with an explanation of why the beer works with the dish. The elegant, yet simple recipes allow you to experience the food alongside the beer, enabling a full appreciation and understanding. In addition to being a great learning tool, Beer at My Table is a beautiful cookbook which encourages a love of beer and recognizes its place at the table.
