Message Defreni beers 5538 º places 124 º 04:45 Wed 10/1/2014 Just wanted to say congratulations to Jeppe with his michelin star. Luksus which is the restaurant part of Tørst in NY just got one Michelin star as the first restaurant ever who exclusively pair its food with beer. Quite a feat.
Message Jow P beers 7409 º places 497 º 04:51 Wed 10/1/2014 Awesome had a great birthday dinner there earlier this month.
Message CH-303 P beers 4578 º places 137 º 05:02 Wed 10/1/2014 Wow, that’s fantastic!
Message DietPepsican P beers 1592 º places 63 º 07:21 Wed 10/1/2014 Saw that yesterday, very cool. Curious if they would have still been awarded a star with just beer pairing as the only option. Is beer getting that kind of recognition?

Message GT P beers 10001 º places 672 º 07:49 Wed 10/1/2014 Holy shit, that’s awesome not just for him but for all craft beer. Major feat
Message MaxxDaddy P beers 415 º places 32 º 07:54 Wed 10/1/2014 This is very cool. Congrats to Jeppe and Daniel for some excellent work!
Message Jow P beers 7409 º places 497 º 08:04 Wed 10/1/2014 Originally posted by pepsican Saw that yesterday, very cool. Curious if they would have still been awarded a star with just beer pairing as the only option. Is beer getting that kind of recognition? My wife doesn’t drink and they paired non-alcoholic custom drinks with every course for her. there was a cucumber drink, a beet drink, and a bunch of other i forget they were all pretty interesting and well done. Ive also had the beer pairing at Eleven Madison Park (3 stars) a few years ago and at Blanca (just upgraded to 2 stars) I believe Jeppe helped provide the beers that they serve there where I custom made my own beer pairing so beer is certainly getting serious here in NYC.
Message MaxxDaddy P beers 415 º places 32 º 08:11 Wed 10/1/2014 It’s definitely becoming a thing in NYC, as Jow said. Few restaurants are doing beer-only pairings as of right now, but beer is now a much bigger option at a lot of these high-rated places.

Message DietPepsican P beers 1592 º places 63 º 08:15 Wed 10/1/2014 Yeah Eleven Madison had a great beer list. I’ve been seeing more places use beer in pairings as well, anything from PBR to imperial stouts. I suppose we will eventually see a place with beer being the only option get in the guide.
Message humlelala beers 1377 º places 89 º 11:12 Wed 10/1/2014 A great day for craft beer indeed. Originally posted by pepsican I suppose we will eventually see a place with beer being the only option get in the guide. What is the other alcoholic pairing option offered at Luksus?
Message DietPepsican P beers 1592 º places 63 º 12:08 Wed 10/1/2014 Bring your own is an option available for $25 correct? the guide seems to find that totally acceptable, although I’ve never been to a bring your own that has more than one star.
