Epicurean isn’t a word you would hear often, I had to look
it up, it means to be paired with food. James Boag’s has developed two very
different beers to be had with food, red and white.
As the colours suggest, red is best paired with red meat
while white is best for seafood and light dishes.
These beers are the most expensive that Boag’s has created
that I’m aware of to date, at $70 a carton at Dan Murphy’s.
I only purchased one of each being very wary of such a
unique product. On sampling (without food) the red was very hard to drink, it
was very rich, while the white wasn’t rich enough, it almost felt like drinking
a light champagne.

On first sample, I wasn’t very excited about either beer,
with food involved it may take away the unusual taste of both but this would be
a beer only suited for a real foodie.
I would much prefer Boag’s to bring back Classic Blonde,
Boag’s Pure or even St George rather than create an ambitious but strange range
of beers.
Cheers,
Dave
