Beer Tasting: Classics vs. New Breed
February 10, 2016 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
For our next tasting, we’ll be doing a riff on our classic “Old World vs. New World” that we normally feature during Craft Beer Week. We’ll highlight four countries, ten beers total; for each country, there will be a classic beer of the region, followed by a new-school brewery from that same place. We’re doubling up on Belgium, because of course we are. See below for the list, date, time, and pricing.
