Peaks & Pints Tacoma Sandwich Special: The Hula Melt
Tuesday, July 15, 2025: Behold The Hula Melt, our sun-dazed ode to edible escapism, where teriyaki chicken does a slow dance with melty Havarti beneath a pineapple sunburst, while mayo and romaine offer a creamy, verdant crunch like a polite beach towel handshake. All of it cozied up on a French roll that clearly missed its train to Bordeaux and settled, instead, for a hammock in Kauai. It’s a sandwich with tan lines. A vacation between carbs. Warning: may cause spontaneous ukulele solos or the sudden need to rethink your life choices—preferably with sand between your toes.
PAIRING: Fort George Brewery City of Dreams Pale Ale
Pair The Hula Melt with City of Dreams, and you’ve essentially booked a round-trip ticket to the breezy edges of summer itself. This pale ale, all lush mango whisper and citrusy suggestion, slides in like a soft-spoken dreamer in mirrored shades—cutting the sweet-savory teriyaki with just enough hop bite, tickling the pineapple into brightness, and coaxing the creamy Havarti into something borderline flirtatious. It’s the kind of pairing that makes mayo feel like poetry and romaine like a leafy afterthought to a beachside novella. One sip, one bite, and suddenly you’re barefoot, blissed out, and considering naming your next pet, “Umami.”
SOUP: Chicken Poblano
