Episode # 356: Food For Thought

Life On Tap

Dan doubles down with another 500ml bottle from Threes Brewing: Food For Thought (2023), a blended saison made with recovered bread.

Threes Brewing Food For Thought (2023)

STYLE: American Wild Ale
INGREDIENTS: Recovered Bread; German Pilsner Malt, German Munich Malt, American Malted Rye; German Saphir and Tettnanger hops
ABV: 6.5%
IBU: N/A
AVAILABILITY: 500ml bottles (Limited)
Stats above taken from the brewery’s bottle and website.

Appearance

Light straw yellow with a beautiful, fluffy, white head.

Aroma

Crusty bread hits first followed by lemon juice and zest.

Taste

Lemon all the way mixed with a bready/grainy element with a crisp acidity.

Mouthfeel

Soft carbonation is foam-like, which lightens the mouthfeel, and mixed with the acid, doesn’t make it too dry.

Overall

I think this a great aperitif beer to have with some snacks during meal preparation (by the grill came to mind). Pairing-wise, I was thinking about Thai chili chicken wings, fried calamari, and curry puffs.

Cheers and remember:

Life’s a tap…drink up ’til it’s dry.

All music on this show came to us from the now defunct Music Alley.
