Planning on a visit? In their restaurant, you’ll find great menu options to pair back with your favourite beer. Head Chef, Hayden Vink, believes that beer is easier to pair with food than wine as there are more flavour elements to play with. Hayden recommends pairing their Black Brewing Co. Milk Stout to go with their chargrilled hanger steak, charcoal emulsion and pickled pumpkin.
