Iowa Beef Backer Awarded to Court Avenue Restaurant & Brewing Company
Janurary 16, 2009
Des Moines, IA --- Court Avenue Restaurant & Brewing Company is this year’s winner of the Iowa Beef Backer award. Chosen by Iowa’s beef producers, this annual honor is bestowed upon a single Iowa restaurant that exemplifies exceptional presentation of premium beef products.
According to its Managing Partner, Scott Carlson, “Court Avenue Restaurant & Brewing Company is committed to serving only the best beef available.” Their menu features Prime Rib, Tenderloin, Petite Tender, Sirloin and the Flat Iron Steak served alongside hand-crafted ales.
Court Avenue Restaurant & Brewing Company aims to give their customers a memorable dining experience by pairing exceptional products with an “above and beyond” approach service and atmosphere. Mr. Carlson stated, “I think there are some diners that know us as a brew pub but are unaware of our passion and talent to deliver an eclectic and premium beef product.” “We will always be rooted in brew pub fare but hope that awards like these will strike curiosity and let diners know we are much more than a brew pub.“
Iowa Beef Industry Council Chairman, Will Frazee notes, “The Beef Backer competition was established to recognize restaurants that go the extra mile to give their customers a great beef dining experience. The criteria to win this award are tough, but Court Avenue Restaurant & Brewing Company more than meets our standards to represent Iowa at the national level. Their dedication to promoting beef is apparent. Not only are they committed to serving top-quality beef, they are also interested in educating their staff and customers. These efforts create an unforgettable dining experience and an appreciation for quality beef. They are very deserving of this award.”
Court Avenue Restaurant & Brewing Company is located in the heart of downtown Des Moines, Iowa. They have been privately owned and operated since opening their doors in 1996. They specialize in serving Premium Hereford Beef from Vande Rose Farms, a farm-to- fork family business located in Oskaloosa, Iowa. Court Avenue Brewing Company’s symbiotic relationship with Vande Rose Farms includes tours of both farm and processing facilities and close relationships with farmers and packers meant to provide the best sourcing of product possible.
