New American Cuisine
We recommend Ommegang Ale with richer, heartier dishes and with cheeses - Hennepin with spicier preparations, with chicken and with shellfish - Rare Vos Amber Ale marries well with the relaxed café style fare - pasta, mussels in broth, and designer pizzas. Three Philosophers works wonders with desserts featuring chocolate, or to sip by itself after dinner like a fine port or sherry. Witte is perfect for summer outdoor fare such as hamburgers, roasted corn, and exuberant fresh salads.
Asian and Asian Fusion
The delicate and balanced spicing in our beers mirrors the subtle and composed spicing in Asian cuisines. The beers go well with sushi, with Mongolian hotpots, adobos, chicken inasal, sticky rice dishes with fish, with all kinds of fried fish, pad thai, lemongrass and coconut milk laced soups, with spare ribs and Peking duck. We recommend experimenting with Hennepin whose spice composure consists of coriander and ginger notes. In fact, Hennepin’s spicy notes work well even as a dessert beer with spicy and ginger based desserts.
French Cuisine
Ommegang compliments many richer slow cooked French dishes made with beef, pork, lamb, and rabbit - carbonnades and hochepot, marinated roasts and the like. Hennepin is great with rustic fare such as quiche, bread and cheeses, roasted chickens, fresh water fish, and those from North Atlantic waters, including shellfish, especially lobster.
Latin Fare
Pair our beers with grilled fish, mixed grills, conch fritters, crab and crayfish, Jamaican jerk chicken, paellas, soups with posole, chorizos and merguez, tapas, Cuban pork sandwiches, and salsas.
Beer with Cheese
Belgium produces 300 different cheeses, one for each of its beers. Churchill said “any country with 200 cheeses must be in good health,” while DeGalle stated that “any country with 300 cheeses is ungovernable.” Which leads to the accurate conclusion that a country with as many cheeses as France but only one-fifth the population is in an anarchic state of fitness.

The idea of pairing beer with cheese is difficult for many, because wine is so often thought of first for such a tasting. But beer with cheese improves on the virtues as wine, as beer actually holds up better to the vigorous flavors of many cheese. Cheese is essentially a strong tasting, fatty food. Beer perfectly balances its flavors and cleanses the palate of fat. In Belgium, the most common bar food is an amazingly simple combination- cubes of semi-soft cheese sprinkled with celery salt.
