nadine-mesch’s-beer-battered-fish-tacos

For the past couple months, awesome daily menu generator NoTakeOut.com has been running a beer pairing recipe contest. The idea was this: create a full menu that compliments the flavor profile of the wildly popular Brooklyn Summer Ale (Summer sales are up 50% everybody! Let’s hear it for the sales persons!).

Lots of delightful entries were received. Several Asian items included. In the end our Brewmaster, Garrett Oliver, decided to go with, drum roll please…Nadine Mesch of Mt. Healthy, Ohio! (Yes, there is a place called Mt. Healthy. I guess if there’s a Death Valley it’s only fair.)

Congrats, Nadine. Your Summer Ale battered taco recipe clocked in on top! Check out the recipe here.  For your culinary savvy and application effort you will receive a Brooklyn Brewery gift pack, a NoTakeOut.com tote & apron, and lastly but certainly not leastly, a Togiharu Hammered Texture Damascus Gyutou 8.2” chefs knife from Korin (pictured below). Thanks Korin!
