SAVOR Standout Pairings

I set out in search of ethereal pairings, the type of combinations that are hard to find but that elevate both beer and food. It's these types of pairings that make SAVOR more than just another tasting event, but a true experience. Here are 10 of my favorite combinations that embodied the purpose of SAVOR and the beer and food pairing crusade.

  • Abita Brewing Company | Abita Springs, Louisiana
    Restoration Pale Ale paired with blue crab and Louisiana crawfish cake, red pepper rouille.
