HOLIDAYS - APRIL 4, 2024
As we approach National Beer Day on Sunday, April 7th, it's the perfect time for beer enthusiasts and chocolate lovers to come together and celebrate the art of pairing. Sarris Candies is here to share our expert recommendations for combining our hand-crafted chocolates with your favorite brews. From the crispness of a Pale Ale to the richness of a Stout, discover how our suggested chocolates can complement and enhance your beer-tasting experience.
1) Pale Ale & Milk Chocolate Cordial Cherries
Pale Ale, known for its balanced bitterness and hint of fruitiness, pairs perfectly with the sweetness of our Milk Chocolate Cordial Cherries. The mild hoppy bite of the Pale Ale complements the sweet maraschino cherries encased in our creamy milk chocolate, creating a harmonious blend of flavors.
2) Hefeweizen & Hot Habanero Milk Chocolate Bar
For those who enjoy a bit of heat, pairing a Hefeweizen with our Hot Habanero Milk Chocolate Bar is a must-try. The beer's natural citrus notes and slight spice complement the fiery kick of the habanero, while the milk chocolate's creaminess cools the palate. This pairing is for those who love to explore bold and adventurous flavors.
3) Pilsner & Malted Milk Balls
Pilsners, known for their light body and clean finish, are the perfect pair for our crunchy, airy Malted Milk Balls. The beer's subtle bitterness cuts through the sweetness, highlighting the malty flavors in both the beer and the chocolate. This pairing highlights the simplicity of flavors, bringing out the best in both the beer and the chocolate.
4) IPA & Milk Chocolate Salted Caramels
The bold, hoppy flavors of an IPA are balanced by the sweet and salty taste of our Milk Chocolate Salted Caramels. The bitterness of the beer balances the richness of the caramel, while the Himalayan Pink Sea Salt enhances the floral and citrus notes of the hops. This pairing is a complex, yet delightful adventure for those who enjoy a contrast of flavors.
5) Stout & Dark Chocolate Raspberry Creams
The deep, roasted flavors of a Stout are the perfect complement to the tangy sweetness of our Dark Chocolate Raspberry Creams. The tartness of the raspberry cuts through the richness of the Stout, while the dark chocolate enhances the beer's chocolate notes. This pairing is a rich, decadent experience, ideal for those who appreciate the depth and intensity of flavors.
6) Porter & Dark Chocolate Chewy Coconut
Porters, characterized by their dark, malty flavors, find their match in the tropical sweetness of our Dark Chocolate Chewy Coconut pieces. The coconut's chewy texture and sweet flavor, combined with the dark chocolate's richness, enhance the porter's complexity. This pairing is a decadent journey that transports your taste buds to a tropical paradise.
