Patch Tips: Picking A Beer To Go With Grilled Seafood

Madison Wine Shop owner John Algieri recommends IPAs and Belgian Pale Ales to complement grilled seafood finished with lemon.

 

We're thinking about grilling some seafood this weekend, so we headed over to Madison Wine Shop during the weekly beer tasting session to get some recommendations on some great beers to go with that. After all this heat this week, we figured a nice cold beer would be the perfect way to end the week.

Madison Wine Shop owner John Algieri had several recommendations for us, including several Indian Pale Ales and Belgian Pale Ales. Here is what he picked off of his shelf:

  • 2XIPA Southern Tier
  • Lagunitas IPA Maximus Ale
  • Whale's Tale Pale Ale
  • Heavy Seas Pale Ale
  • Hoptimum Sierra Nevada
  • Dogfish Head 120 Minute IPA
  • Duval Belgian Golden Ale
  • Allagash White Beer Brewed With Spices
  • Ommegang Wheat Ale

And here is a recipe for Lemon-Herb Grilled Shrimp from marthastewart.com. If you try it out, let us know what you think. If you have a recipe for grilled seafood that you like, we'd love to see it. Share it in the comment section below, along with any beer recommendations you have.

Owners really need to pick up their dog's waste. It is a major polluter of the Long Island Sound.Read More Whenever your dog drops one and you leave it, think of that fish, lobster, or shellfish you ate from the Sound! Enjoy eating your dog poop bacteria!

I'm so lucky!! For 10 years my dogs have frolicked safely in the back part of Bauer - away from theRead More roads, traffic and homes - closer to the back of the HS. I have never heard any dogs bark or 'yap', never saw a dog run into the gardens and destroy the plots, never saw a dog fight or kids being assaulted and luckily avoided all the poop they are leaving behind although I do dodge the deer pellets. My timing must be stellar to avoid all the bad dogs, their dismal behavior and threats to others. Whew!!

The whole state is tick infested. Luckily, dogs can use a product called Frontline Top Spot or itsRead More cheaper generic equivalent, which completely protects them from ticks and fleas. On the shoreline to Middletown, you should be using it on your dog year round. I once saw a deer tick crawling on SNOW in Madison near the Country School in February. The Lyme vacine is ineffective in most canines and most canines that get Lyme, shake it off in time - unlike humans. Top Spot keeps the ticks off or dead for the humans that pet the dog. Regardless, dogs running on cut grass some distance from woods or taller grass won't encounter many if any ticks. Especially if the outer perimeter of the fence is treated in spring and fall.
