🍺🍺🍺❌❌ • Krampus 2018 Stout ABV:10.0% IBU:❓ • Rich roasted malts that provide a molasses and light liquorice flavouring, make up the backbone of this beer throughout the sip. Next up, you experience a spiced concoction of clove, nutmeg, ginger and cinnamon. Mouthfeel was relatively thin throughout the sip with a low carbonation level. I preferred this one much better when it was cold, due to the fact that the liquorice flavour intensifies as it warms to room temperature. I unfortunately have never liked black liquorice, so I personally had to knock it down a few points from my original take. @saulterstreetbrewimg #saulterstreetbrewing 🥩 People’s Choice Beef Jerky Nashville Hot • All I can say about this one is the name didn’t lie and the burn is a lasting one. As soon as you open the bag, you can smell the heat coming off of the jerky. @pcbeefjerky #pcbeefjerky 🍺🥩 Pairing Suggestions: Stout or Porter 🍺🥩 In theory, this matchup should have worked, however I didn’t take into account that this beer had a bit of spice going on as well. I figured a stout would provide a creamy mouthfeel to cool the heat of the jerky, but this beer wasn’t offering those typical qualities. Ultimately, I ignited a 5 alarm blaze in my mouth, but I guess you win some and lose some • • • • • • #beer #beers #beerme #ilovebeer #beertime #beerporn #craftbeerporn #beergeek #beernerd #beersnob #beerstagram #instabeer #beertography #beerlover #drinking #craftbeer #cheers #prost #salud #beeroclock #beerreview #drinkcraft #craftnotcrap #beerblogger #canadiancraftbeer #ontariocraftbeer #toronto #jerky https://www.instagram.com/p/B5sPb0QlHbq/?igshid=kr509xrak52b

🍺🍺🍺🍺❌ • Waterloo Brewing Craft Lager ABV:4.8% IBU:17 • This one begins with pale grainy malts, providing a doughy sweetness. Picking up a light lemon taste in the mid-sip, before it transitions into a muted, grassy and floral hops aspect on the finish. Carbonation level helps provide a crisp mouthfeel that cleanses the palate after each sip. This is a thirst quenching crowd pleaser that I could see just about any one enjoying. @waterloobrewing #waterloobrewing 🥩 People’s Choice Beef Jerky Original • This one provide that traditional salt and pepper steak flavour with a drier and chewier texture than some of their other selections. @pcbeefjerky #pcbeefjerky 🍺🥩 Pairing Suggestions: Lager or Pilsner 🍺🥩 This match up goes hand in hand, the Jerky provides the salty nutrition and makes you thirsty, while the lager quenches your thirst. A battle that goes back and forth, until you’re out of beer and jerky. I figured it only made sense to pair this original PCBJ with a beer from the first Ontario Craft Brewery • • • • • • #beer #beers #beerme #ilovebeer #beertime #beerporn #craftbeerporn #beergeek #beernerd #beersnob #beerstagram #instabeer #beertography #beerlover #drinking #craftbeer #cheers #prost #salud #beeroclock #beerreview #drinkcraft #craftnotcrap #beerblogger #canadiancraftbeer #ontariocraftbeer #waterloo #jerky https://www.instagram.com/p/B5kh7CzlMYN/?igshid=17t4baxh5qlj0

🍺🍺🍺¾❌ ❌ • Bellwoods Brewery Milkshark Lime Milkshake IPA w/ Vanilla & Lime ABV:7.0% IBU:❓ • Big lactose and vanilla comes through right from the beginning, that provides a creamy and buttery mouthfeel. Lime flavourings develop in the mid-sip and eventually leads into a tart aspect on the finish. This is like canning up key lime pie. @bellwoodsbeer #bellwoodsbrewery 🥩 People’s Choice Beef Jerky Sweet Chili Habanero • The name represents this jerky perfectly. Lots of sweetness in the beginning and a big kick of heat coming in about mid-way through, which provides a lasting heat. @pcbeefjerky #pcbeefjerky 🍺🥩 Pairing Suggestions: IPA or Wheat Bier 🍺🥩 The contrasting aspects of these two balance one another out. The tart lime taste meshes well with the sweetness of the jerky, while the heat of the habanero is curbed by the vanilla lactose portion of the beer. I chose a milkshake IPA solely to curb some of the heat and this weird combination actually worked out quite well. The Jerky is providing that extra boost of energy to get through this kitchen Reno • • • • • • #beer #beers #beerme #ilovebeer #beertime #beerporn #craftbeerporn #beergeek #beernerd #beersnob #beerstagram #instabeer #beertography #beerlover #drinking #craftbeer #cheers #prost #salud #beeroclock #beerreview #drinkcraft #craftnotcrap #beerblogger #canadiancraftbeer #ontariocraftbeer #toronto #jerky https://www.instagram.com/p/B5Se3QlF9Zr/?igshid=1u675m0m8bzbg

🍺🍺🍺🍺❌ • Boshkung Brewing Co. Campfire Rye Ale ABV:5.5% IBU:20 • This one starts with toasted bready grains, that provide a toffee sweetness. The sweetness is then curbed by an earthy hops, which combines with a smokey flavour in the mid-sip. Picking up some of the rye spices on the finish, that creates a warming feel. In the aftertaste, the smokiness slowly fades away and you are left with a dry mouthfeel. @boshkungbrewing #boshkungbrewingco 🥩 People’s Choice Beef Jerky Garlic Ginger • This one has a nice meaty taste combined with the saltiness of soy sauce. Garlic & ginger provide for a spiced finish with a lasting warmth. @pcbeefjerky #pcbeefjerky 🍺🥩 Pairing Suggestions: Rye Ale or Amber Ale 🍺🥩 I wasn’t sure what I was going to pair this jerky with at first, but when I opened the fridge and saw this beer, I knew I needed to try out this rye & ginger combination. I can confidently say it did not disappoint - this is just what one needs on a cool fall hike. The smokey taste from the beer helps intensify the natural smokiness of the meat, while the spices of each, combine together to make a spice bomb of warmth • • • • • • #beer #beers #beerme #ilovebeer #beertime #beerporn #craftbeerporn #beergeek #beernerd #beersnob #beerstagram #instabeer #beertography #beerlover #drinking #craftbeer #cheers #prost #salud #beeroclock #beerreview #drinkcraft #craftnotcrap #beerblogger #canadiancraftbeer #ontariocraftbeer #minden #jerky https://www.instagram.com/p/B42KOMNFQVf/?igshid=krrm1ydjzp1e

🍺🍺🍺🍺❌ • Burdock Brewery Vermont Blonde ABV:4.5% IBU:❓ • Begins with bready and crackery malts that provide a semi sweetness. Picking up some tropical zest flavourings in the mid-sip, before a slightly floral hops aspect arrived with little to no bitterness. A touch of spice on the backend, with a prickly carbonation, cleanses the palate after each sip. @burdockbrewery #burdockbrewery 🥩 People’s Choice Beef Jerky Orange Honey Teriyaki • Sweet aspects that one would expect from a teriyaki jerky, but this one has big orange flavouring leading the way. @pcbeefjerky #pcbeefjerky 🍺🥩 Pairing Suggestions: Blonde Ale or Pale Ale 🍺🥩 These two have combined in a way that elevates one another. Don’t get me wrong - the beer and the jerky are great individually, however together, they make for a spectacular tasting experience. The semi-sweet beer sets a backdrop to showcase the big flavourings of the jerky, while the zesty and floral elements of this particular beer, play off the orange flavouring of the jerky very well • • • • • • #beer #beers #beerme #ilovebeer #beertime #beerporn #craftbeerporn #beergeek #beernerd #beersnob #beerstagram #instabeer #beertography #beerlover #drinking #craftbeer #cheers #prost #salud #beeroclock #beerreview #drinkcraft #craftnotcrap #beerblogger #canadiancraftbeer #ontariocraftbeer #toronto #jerky https://www.instagram.com/p/B4r3DwEFe73/?igshid=teatsyy682ls

Beer & Jerky 🍺🥩 Thank you! @pcbeefjerky #pcbeefjerky 🍺🥩 I believe it would be difficult to find a more natural pairing combination than an ice cold beer and the salty and versatile snack known as beef jerky. 🍺🥩 Over the last year and a bit, I’ve dived into the craft beer world and developed a new appreciation for various styles and tastes. I have become quite comfortable now with my reviews of beer, so it’s time to step out of my comfort zone and try some pairing reviews. 🍺🥩 Luckily enough, “People’s Choice Beef Jerky” have provided me with just that opportunity. With their rich family history of producing a wide range of small batch beef jerky since 1929, I knew I would have lots of opportunities to pair just the right beer with just the right jerky. • • • • • • #beer #beers #beerme #ilovebeer #beertime #beerporn #craftbeerporn #beergeek #beernerd #beersnob #beerstagram #instabeer #beertography #beerlover #drinking #craftbeer #cheers #prost #salud #beeroclock #beerreview #drinkcraft #craftnotcrap #beerinfluencer #beerblogger #canadiancraftbeer #ontariocraftbeer #beefjerky #jerky https://www.instagram.com/p/B4M2uSeFIUB/?igshid=1e3erxipewfoo
