Gail Ambrosius Beerific Taster’s Box
Because two beloved foods can only get better when paired.
user rating
With craft beers all the rage, why not give your ale or stout a touch of sweetness—chocolaty sweetness that is—and pair them with some savory sweet truffles from Madison, Wis., chocolatier Gail Ambrosius. Ambrosius sources her single-origin chocolates from around the world, including Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Costa Rica, Venezuela and Hawaii to make her inventive truffles. The Beerific Taster's Box features 7 truffles—from Blueberry and Lemongrass with Ginger to savory Shiitake mushroom—and a pairing guide that lists recommended beers to have on hand for the tasting. Belgian ales will pair nicely with the Shiitake truffle, while stouts and porters will complement the Cinnamon/Cayenne confection, and American pale ales will match the bold Lemongrass Ginger truffle.—Nicole Denis
