Today we are continuing on my Dallas adventure today to a brewery restaurant that can be found throughout the country. Gordon Biersch is located at the area known as Park Lane, a development of shops and restaurants located just off of 75.
Your option for beer at this place is one of their brews that they make in house or Bud Light so we decided to sample some of their selections.
First Kevin ordered a Hefeweizen, as you know from my previous posts this is not one of my favorite styles of beer, it is simply too sweet for my preference. This beer was definitely a good example of Hefeweizen, so if I was more of a fan of the style it would have been a good call.
My first beer option was Märzen, a Bavarian lager crisp and cool like a true lager should be. The American lager (what you get when you order a Bud for example) is a diluted version consisting of rice rather than heavier grains so it is a nice change to kick it Bavarian style.
My second beer was a Czech Pilsner, a bitter brew that was full of flavor. Not quite as good as the Märzen but good none the less.
Kevin got a Bud Light for his next beer so instead of a photo of beer I am going to recycle a photo of pouting Kevin… Man up.
Now we weren’t just there to quench our thirst, fortunately Sunday’s at Gordon Biersch is an all day happy hour so we got some scrumptious appetizers.
Our first choice was Southwest Egg Rolls. I was expecting something along the lines of what you get at Chili’s but these were much better. They were much softer and had a ton more flavor, you could actually detect the different ingredients rather than having one flavor throughout the dish. The real star of the plate though was the jalapeno ranch, how can you go wrong with that?
Option two was some sweet chile shrimp, little fried shrimp with a sweet chile dipping sauce. Not as good as the egg rolls, but good none the less.
