Here are four dynamic duo’s to add to your next meal:

  1. Spinach + Crab Oysters paired with Sierra Nevada Pale Ale: Eight sustainably-sourced gulf oysters topped with spinach + crab.
  2. Maine Lobster Roll with Shelton Riesling: Presented on a brioche bun, 4 oz’s of fresh, chilled Maine lobster. Pro tip: request a light dressing to take the flavor to the next level.
  3. Verlasso Salmon with Orin Swift Machete: Grilled salmon with angel hair pasta topped with a yummy cream sauce featuring sundried tomato, roasted bell peppers, and grilled lemon.
