Long about this time each year, questions start to arise as to when we can expect to see The Abyss from Deschutes arrive in Texas.  If the upcoming Deschutes Beer Dinner at the Flying Saucer in Addison is any indication, the answer looks to be around the middle of December.

On December 19, the Addison Saucer will host its final beer dinner of the year.  Guests will enjoy a glass of Deschutes Mirror Pond Pale Ale, followed by a four-course meal paired with beers from the brewery's Reserve Series.  The menu for the evening is as follows:


1st Course:

Black Butte XXIV, a porter brewed with artisanal cocoa nibs, Deglet dates and Mission figs.

• Paired with a fig, honey and blue cheese tartlet.

2nd Course:

Black Butte XXV, a porter brewed with Theo cocoa nibs, Mission figs and Medjool dates.

• Paired with cold-smoked bay scallops, candied bacon, bourbon sauce and Southern grits.

3rd Course:

The Abyss, an Imperial stout that is consistently ranked among the best beers in the world.

• Paired with boeuf bourguignon a l'abime, caramelized onion and mushroom.

4th Course:

The Dissident Sour Brown Ale, an Oud Bruin aged for 18 months in pinot and cabernet barrels.
