Mushrooms and De Garde Brewing Pairing Menu at Coopers Hall
Coopers Hall wine bar in inner southeast Portland may be known as a wino’s paradise, but they aren’t shy about their love of craft beer either. Next week, Coopers Hall will launch their Chef's Experience menu featuring de Garde Brewing beers paired with local foraged mushroom dishes for a prix fixe menu available September 30 - October 10th.
Chef Keith Morris has created a menu highlighting the bounty of local mushroom foragers and including the optional pairing menu featuring de Garde's The Purple Kriek, The Petria, The Borbóndias and The Truffle.
During current COVID protocols Coopers Hall is only taking advanced seating reservations, but the Chef’s Experience menu is available for 10 days. Food is served family style for four shared plates at $40 + $25 for beer pairings. 10% of proceeds from the menu and beer pairings will go to Causa, who are providing relief for immigrants displaced and affected by the Oregon wildfires.
