Gelato and Beer, a heavenly match

Today I went over to Fat Lorenzo's and partook in an experimentation with Mike Lapitz, the creative mind behind their gelato.

First up was a gelato produced with Boulder Beer Company's "kinda blue."


We enhanced the flavor with a bit of our Fabbri blueberry delipaste and viola!



Now we are up close and personal with "kinda blue" gelato, available for your tasting pleasure at Fat Lorenzo's.

Next, we experimented with some Town Hall brews. We added some Fabbri apricot delipaste to the Masala Mama IPA to enhance some of it's brightness.

Then we worked with one of their Porters (I love me some dark and syrupy beers). The first round was enhanced with Fabbri moka and hazelnut delipastes. On the second round, we mixed it up with Fabbri coconut. The idea behind this was to bring out some of the flavors we were tasting in the beer. For this particular Porter we were trying to pull out the nutty notes, along with the smoky coffee flavor.

This my friends, is a thing of beauty.
