Collaborations
Who said beer and ice cream don't mix?
Two popular Hampden businesses are collaborating! On Labor Day, The Charmery, a local, natural ice creamery by Laura and David Alima debuted its limited edition Duckpin Pale Ale ice cream using beer straight from the brewers at Union Craft Brewing. Duckpin Pale Ale ice cream is a chocolate based ice cream with a Duckpin finish that is completely unique and fully delicious. This flavor is limited so head on down to The Charmery on Labor Day to experience this flavor.
They also have other Maryland insired flavors on the menu like Md. Mud and Berger Cookies and Cream. Yes, please!
Midtown BBQ & Beer is worth checking out. Recently enjoyed some pulled chicken and fixins from its sister Food Truck called Jurassic Pork and had to check out the flagship restaurant in Mt. Vernon. I am hooked on their pulled chicken and a sweet sauce with a mustard color. I have told many about my new hotspot and they rave about the special nachos, Tony’s Smokehouse Nachos
jalapeños, pulled pork, shredded cheese & choice of sauce $10.
I stared down a gentleman's lunch and am eager to try Caesar Salad $6add topped with a grilled steak $5. Now the beef used at Midtown is all local, aged just 18 days on a local farm. Owner Tony Harrison takes natural, organic, fresh food seriously.He even picks out his cows personally. He says he wants to prove he has the best burger in town, made to order! I found us all a new neighbrhood gem. Let me know if you agree. patti@citypeek.com Menu is here.
