The NFL is ramping up and for many of us that means Fantasy Football season is here. But don’t settle for any boring online draft… make your draft count with Spec’s! We’ll keep you fed to fuel your impeccable strategic thinking with delicious food and refreshing brews. Here are some top picks from Spec’s Gourmet Catering, paired with the perfect brew to round out your legendary Fantasy Football draft!
Wings
This platter features four delicious sauces – original, BBQ, buffalo and sweet chili – so you’re sure to please all of your league members. It is served with carrots, celery and ranch dressing for dipping.
Pair it with Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. The assertive hop flavors of this American pale ale will play both offense and defense against the spiciness of the wings. Its clean flavors will help counterbalance the heat while still keeping you refreshed!
Gourmet Sliders
Served on mini Kaiser rolls, this platter features roast beef and cheddar, turkey and brie, ham and manchego and grilled vegetables with feta and pesto.
Pair it with Saint Arnold Amber Ale. This well-balanced, full-flavored amber ale has a malty body and toastiness that make it the perfect match for this dish. Its complex hop aroma and hint of floral and citrus will really draw out the flavors of the sliders while its light fruitiness keeps it from feeling too heavy.
Quesadillas
Our quesadilla platter is a classic. Featuring beef fajita and grilled vegetable and bean quesadillas, you won’t have trouble winning over your league with this one. Served with pico de gallo and sour cream, this is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.
Pair it with Landshark Lager. You can’t ever go wrong pairing Mexican food with a traditional lager. Light and refreshing, this beer won’t overpower the delicious flavors of the quesadillas, but its subtle hops will still have enough power to cut through the spices.
But we’re not done quite yet… make it a true draft this year! All of these delicious brews are available in a keg. Just ask your local Spec’s beer expert for more information. Now that’s a draft no one can turn down!
