Dea Latis to host beer and chocolate matching event in Leeds for first time

Dea Latis – named after the Celtic goddess of beer - aims to encourage more women to drink beer, and has run various events over the last three years.

It will be hosting the beer and chocolate event at the Leeds Brewery Tap on Tuesday 19 March from 6.00 pm.  Guests will be guided through six beer and chocolate pairings by award-winning beer sommelier Annabel Smith.

Yorkshire breweries will be represented with beers from Leeds Brewery, Ossett Brewery and Ilkley Brewery, as well as other brews from SA Brain, Jacobsen (Carlsberg) and Molson Coors.

Dea Latis co-founder  Smith said: “Of all the events we have hosted, unsurprisingly the beer and chocolate matching has always proved to be the most popular.

“People might be surprised to hear that beer and chocolate match well together and we have six superb beers to taste. There are thousands of different types of beers and I am a great believer that there is a beer out there for everyone – so even if you have never tried beer before, come along and prepare to be converted.”
