A beer with dinner will make me even more tired/sleepy than I already am after a day's work and I still have some office/business work I do at home in the evenings which is usually when I do my, ah, tastings. I think it would also be interesting for the wine experts here to offer their suggestions for pairings and some after dinner dessert wines.
There is great pub in Charlotte, NC called Sir Edmund Haley's that offers a Monday Night Sushi Menu where each plate is paired with a beer. May sound bizarre at first (British Pub, sushi, beer, MNF?) but it really works. It helps that Chef Kengo has mad skills. Charlotteans, don't miss out on this.
