As part of Austin Beer Week, we are pleased to announce a screening of INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS with a multi-course German feast paired with German-style beers from our friends at Live Oak Brewing Company. The screening will also include a guided tasting with descriptions of the beer as well as a Q&A after the film.

The menu will include:

Eins–
Nazi Scallops
Kosher salt seared scallops on a latke with caramelized blood orange and Live Oak HefeWeizen reduction
Paired with a Live Oak brew so special, we are not even going to tell you what it is! You'll just have to come out to find out for yourself.

Zwei-
Tomato-Fennel Tart Tatin
Paired with Live Oak Liberation Ale (IPA)

Drei-
Kreplach
Tradidional seared kosher potato dumplings in chicken consomme
Paired with Live Oak Oaktoberfest

Vier-
Schweinsbraten Sauerkraut
Sauerkraut-roast pork sandwich on rye

Funf-
Strudel

Those Nazi Scallops are one of my most favorite Drafthouse specials ever. I am excited to eat them again! Not to mention all that delicious Live Oak brewery happiness going on there. YAY.

I exercised a little this morning and then I cleaned a few windows. That is not a chore I enjoy, but I really like the results. I feel like I need to clean all the things. It's the lovely warm, sunny weather I suppose. I also want to go swimming. And bake a fruity pie - I'm craving cherry or blueberry maybe.

I would suspect it is entirely in the humor of the film. A secrete strike force of killer Jewish heroes collecting Nazi scalps? (I don't know if you've seen the movie or not, but it was pretty over the top in that wacky Tarantino way. The Drafthouse has a close relationship with Tarantino, doing a lot of big shows with him and they've had the $5 milkshake on the menu forever.)

Edited to say, I don't think they would serve Nazi scallops while showing something like Schindler's List.
