Mr Foodie Beer and Food collaboration between two renowned East Lothian businesses
Following a successful Fringe By The Sea event in August, Scotland’s oldest working brewery, Belhaven, in Dunbar have again teamed up with nearby Archerfield (House) for a couple more events in the run up to Christmas.
The Belhaven x Archerfield Winter Sessions are taking place on Thursday 24th November and the following Thursday, 1st December. This limited run of events will again see Belhaven team up with Dave Jamieson, Executive Chef at Archerfield to offer an intimate evening of locally paired beer and food at Scotland’s oldest continuously working brewery, having been established in 1719.
On arrival, guests will be able to enjoy a winter walk through 300 years of brewing history as beers and hot roasted chestnuts are served in the courtyard. After this, paired beer and food will be served in the Monks Retreat bar. Four courses with four different styles of Belhaven beers, each paired with four dishes straight from Archerfield’s new winter menu will be provided to guests.
The menu will be seasonal, using local ingredients where possible, all enhanced by the beer pairings – with plenty of time to talk about the beer along the way.
St Andrews day will be the theme on Thursday 24th November, while Thursday 1st December’s event will focus on the festive period. Places are limited and must be booked in advance at https://www.belhaven.co.uk/our-beers/belhaven-x-archerfield-winter-sessions. Tickets are priced £25 per person including all food and drink on the evening. A vegetarian menu is also available.
