Mendocino Brewing Company is renowned for brewing a range of full-bodied beers. And we agree with the major European cultures to whom beer is a way of life and that beer is food. Beers offer all the goodness of whole grains, are totally devoid of preservatives, and taste wonderful. While our brews are excellent on their own, we often recommend that they be served as an accompaniment to food - One taste sensation, heightening the other! This does not mean however, that flavors necessarily have to match. More often than not, it is opposites that attract, and this fusion creates excitement in its diversity! The more complex the flavor profile of the beer, the more interesting the possible match-ups.
