Peaks & Pints Tacoma Sandwich Special: Pineapple Provocateur
Thursday, July 10, 2025: Behold Peaks & Pints Kitchen Brittany’s Pineapple Provocateur—a sandwich that doesn’t whisper, doesn’t nudge, doesn’t politely knock. No, this one struts in with a bacon-crackled grin, teriyaki barbecue dripping from its sly little smirk, and pineapple rings gleaming like sun-soaked amulets of tropical seduction. Chicken? Char-grilled and strung with green onion incense. Provolone? Melted like a sultry confession on toasted sourdough. And arugula? The final flash of emerald rebellion, peppery and unapologetically alive. This is no simple sandwich—it’s a hallucination of sweet smoke, island memory, and mouth-hugging umami. Best paired with a West Coast IPA to cut the glaze, spark the citrus, and remind your taste buds that yes, paradise can crunch.
PAIRING: Block 15 Brewing Ice Knife IPA
Pair the Pineapple Provocateur with Block 15’s Ice Knife IPA and watch the universe briefly recalibrate its flavor axis. This isn’t just a beer—it’s a shimmering West Coast incantation, a blade of citrus and resin honed to a lupulin edge sharp enough to slice through teriyaki lacquer, bacon smoke, and molten provolone like a samurai whisper. Grapefruit pith and mango haze rise like heat mirage over chicken, while pine theology crackles against the sandwich’s sweet-sour voltage. It’s not balance—it’s a glorious collision, a flavor standoff where sourdough meets salvos of hop clarity, and your palate gets to play referee in a match made somewhere between Maui and a Pacific Northwest sweat lodge.
SOUP: Wicked Thai Chicken & Rice
