Peaks and Pints Tacoma Sandwich Special: Hail Caesar!
Thursday, Dec. 4 2024: Peaks & Pints Kitchen Brittany added Pesto and Caesar to her weekly Wednesday Chicken Salad Sandwich Special, plus Bacon, Onion, Tomato, and Romaine on French.
PAIRING: Weihenstephaner Original Premium Lager
In 1895, Spaten Brewery brewed a helles lager to compete with pilsner-style beers. Unlike German pilsner, helles lager emphasizes malt sweetness rather than bittering hops; the beer isn’t sweet by any means, but the hops just balance the beer rather than provide a bitter edge. We like to describe these beers as bready, which is why we are pairing a Munich helles lager with this Caesar-driven sandwich special instead of a pilsner. Most well-made pilsners these days contain substantial hop bitterness that might overwhelm this sandwich. A Munich helles lager, like Weihenstephaner Original, is light enough to complement the dressing while providing carbonation to calm down the bright acidity.
THING TO DO: Please you’re the QR codes at the tables and order from the bartenders behind the bar. Call ahead at (253) 328-5621 for pick-ups. Cheers!
