Earlier this month, as media, I was invited to attend the 3rd annual Science of Cocktails event at the Science World. It was the perfect venue as the Science World was transformed into a giant lab where drinks were changing from blue to pink, bananas being sous vide in honey, popcorn was frozen with liquid nitrogen, a “toothpaste” palate cleanser, smoking herbs, vaporized gin & tonic, fermentation, a sniffing station, foodies pulling themselves up a lift… the list goes on!

Last week, we attended the launch event of the Steamworks bottled beer. Yes, you can now purchase Steamworks beer by the bottles and bring them home. At the event, we were each given a passport to taste 6 beer & food pairings, try them all and we would be eligible for door prizes.
Here are the food pairings:
- BBQ Pork Belly Bao Buns with Pale Ale
- West Coast Steamer Pot with Pilsner
- Gruyere Fritter with Wheat Ale
- Oysters and Pearls with Heroica Oatmeal Stout
- Pumpkin Steam Clouds with Pumpkin Ale
- Mini Ice Cream Cone with Frambozen (Raspberry Ale)
I found the stout pearls quite creative, maintaining the flavour of the stout while presenting it like caviar. (more…)
