Beer/Wine Dinner at Dai Due with Jester King & La Cruz de Comal

We’re extremely excited to announce a special, one-of-a-kind beer/wine dinner at Dai Due on Monday, April 25th at 7pm featuring authentic farmhouse ales from Jester King and natural wines from La Cruz de Comal. We’ve written before about our affinity and deep respect for La Cruz de Comal. Proprietor Lewis Dickson’s philosophy on natural wine making with native yeast and bacteria resonates with us deeply. Lewis’ secret is that there is no secret. He often says that the hardest thing to do in wine making is to just leave it alone, and resist the urge to alter and manipulate the natural process of fermentation. We also subscribe to his philosophy of using acidity from fermentation as a natural preservative.

We believe there’s a natural connection between La Cruz de Comal, Jester King, and Dai Due. Chef Jesse Griffiths culinary philosophy intensely embraces cuisine tied to place and time. We have tremendous respect for what Chef Griffiths is doing at Dai Due, and believe it dovetails naturally with La Cruz de Comal and Jester King.

The six course, family-style menu (we’ve seen the preliminary one, and it’s awesome) will be announced at the dinner, and will be paired with some very special and rare beers from Jester King and wines from La Cruz de Comal. The dinner is $90 person, and reservations can be made by calling 512.524.0688.
