Pale Ale is not only great as an ingredient but pairs well with this dish. The rich caramelization in the meat brings out the malt and the chiles’ flavor and heat are accented by the bitter notes in the beer. While the fresh rosemary brings out some of the floral aromas of the hops and the yogurt smooths everything out.
The earthy flavors from the charred cauliflower, slight bitterness from the roasted broccoli and tang of the chevre pair well with Hazy Little Thing IPA. The flavors compliment and contrast one another. The citrus notes in the beer are highlighted and the bitterness decreases on the palate.
