The ANHC Food & Beer Pairing Dinner is back in 2013 as part of Good Beer Week

The Australian National Homebrewing Conference Food and Beer pairing dinner has become one of the most anticipated events on the brewing calendar. Over the last 5 years we have presented some of the most amazing food and beer pairings you are likely to have experienced, and guess what, the Australian National Homebrewing Conference’s Food and Beer Pairing dinner is back again this year. Some might even say Christmas has come early, but we’ll let you be the judge!

This year we bring together four of the best homebrewers in Victoria, all of which have been consistent award winning brewers of fine beers and have the trophies in the cabinet to prove it. You’ll be so impressed by the beers these guys have crafted specially for the dinner that you’ll be running out the door wanting to get brewin’. These four brewers have lovingly produced some great beers that can proudly stand alongside many of the best commercial beers in the world and after one taste we’re sure you’ll agree.

Who are the brewers and what have they brewed I hear you ask, well we were going to keep this as a surprise, but cries for information about the beers and brewers is deafening, so here it is:

• Paul Bowlen from Worthogs has brewed an Oyster Stout (which was a category winner at VicBrew 2012)
• Michael Bowron from Westgate Brewers has brewed a Hoppy American Pale Ale (produced the Champion Beer of Show at VicBrew 2012)
• Bryce van Denderen from Bayside Brewers has brewed a Belgian Blonde (multi place winner at VicBrew 2012)
• Chris Taylor from Melbourne Brewers has brewed a Black Hefewiezen (Champion Brewer Beerfest 2010)

So, 4 amazing beers, 4 great brewers and 4 clubs, so come a long and you decide which club is going to take beer of the dinner?

And while each of the beers stands up in its own right, we will be matching them perfectly with some of the most extraordinary cutting edge cuisine you are likely to experience. All of which will be prepared by the teaching staff and students at Australia’s leading culinary institute, the William Angliss Institute.

This is a fantastic opportunity to sample some of Australia’s greatest home crafted beers which have been creatively paired with food skilfully prepared by some of Melbourne’s best up and coming chefs.

Places are limited so get in quick before the chance passes for another year.
