I just picked up a bottle of Trader Joe's Vintage Ale. I hear it's a dark ale with molasses/brown sugar tones. Some sort of combo between a dark ale and champagne. A sweet dark Belgian ale, I am told.
Now, keep in mind SWMBO is vegan, so no meat or dairy. But I would appreciate any recommendations for an accompanying dinner.

I guess I just don't understand vegans. Seems unnatural to me, but to each his own. Sounds like it is a dubbel or Belgian Dark Strong type ale. I always though they were more of a dessert kind of beer - they go really nicely with something sweet or just for drinking when it is cold out.
YEAST. Get it right, jesus. And yeast are just fungus. They're not of kingdom Animalia or anything.
Leave the ethical BS out of it. The guy has a question he'd like answered, and none of you are really helping.
Portabello mushroom sandwich or risotto would be awesome. Something rich and flavorful like that. I personally like a dark strong with chocolate and as more of a dessert beer.

Way to take the fun, joking atmosphere out of a forum. No need to be a Negative Nancy, I was just giving him a hard time.
But thank for chiding me. That was awesome.
Well next time remember that you're the 500th person to make some sort of joking comment this week about a vegan and what is and isn't alive. You might think it is funny, but it is pretty damned annoying when you hear it over and over.

I would hurry up and change that tampon.....
A think a blueberry pie would go nice with it if she can eat that (I am not really sure whats in the crust). I think its more of an after dinner drink
