Share plates are a wonderful way to dine with friends. With Matt's love of beer and food matching, he has long wanted to blend the idea of sharing food with sharing beer in the same way. Rather than just have just one or two different beers with a meal, Beer Tapas lets you share a wide selection of beers with friends, sampling a much wider range of smaller serves paired with food.
Matt has worked with amazing chefs to create Beer Tapas, a menu of great share plates that I have matched up with beers. The idea is you order a selection of our unique beer tapas dishes with friends and each dish will be paired with a bottle of beer to share as well. You can enjoy the flavours of the tapas plates, beautifully matched with the samples of beers from around the world.
With a group of friends sharing 6 or 7 plates of food, you also get to sample 6 or 7 perfectly-sized serves of beer adding to the experience, while keeping the alcohol consumption very moderate.
Beer Tapas is designed to be a very social way to enjoy beer, while also experiencing great food matches. Most importantly, there's not a pulled pork slider or buffalo wing to be seen. These are contemporary restaurant dishes matched to beer, not dude food.
