Samuel Adams promotes craft beer, chocolate pairing
Samuel Adams, a brand of The Boston Beer Co., Boston, teamed up with San Francisco-based craft chocolate maker TCHO to introduce the Samuel Adams Beer Lover's Chocolate Box. The brewers at Samuel Adams worked closely with TCHO Chief Chocolate Maker Brad Kintzer to design the gift box so that each premium chocolate pairs with a Samuel Adams brew from the Samuel Adams Winter Classics Variety Pack, the company says.
According to the company, the malty sweetness and rich flavors of craft beer and the flavors of rich, premium chocolate complement each other, while the carbonation of the beer also cleanses the palate from the heavy finish of the chocolate.
