More about Sam Taylor's
Sam Taylor's Bar-B-Q & Catering has always taken a BOLD approach to make our operation successful. Whether sourcing & adding new items on our menu or perfecting our current menu offerings, we are always on the look out for new products to share with our faithful customers. Team Taylor constantly seeks out other local and regional producers and vendors for products that we know our customers will enjoy.
Sam Taylor's Bar-B-Q & Catering has become the first metro area Bar-B-Q concept to introduce the Denver based Del Norte Brewing Company brands, to their beverage menu.
Perfectly seasoned Mississippi style barbeque accompanied by a traditional Mexican style beer is a great flavor combination that everyone craves after just one pairing. Nothing goes better with Bar-B-Q than beer! Why not pair a domestically brewed import style beer with artisan style que. It just makes sense!
Del Norte Brewing Company is the only U.S. brewer specializing in Mexican-style beers. Brewed locally; in small batches with traditional ingredients, our beers capture the styles and flavor of the oldest brewing heritage in the Western Hemisphere.
Órale is a Mexican-style lager (cerveza clara), lightly-hopped, full-bodied, and has a slight sweetness that perfectly complements the rich flavors of Mexico’s cuisines.
Mañana is a Mexican-style amber lager (cerveza oscura). The malty, bold flavor of this beer recalls the European roots of Mexico’s great brewing history. Smooth and rich, Mañana is superb, whether enjoyed alone or with your favorite food.
In this case...Sam Taylor's Bar-B-Q.
