Crostini and Apple Ale
I had the opportunity to partner with one of my very favorite sites on the web, Pints and Plates, to attempt one of their tried and true recipes and pair it with one of our favorite beers. I chose this Whipped Goat Cheese Crostini for the reasons above, but also because we just LOVE finger food around the Super Bowl.
