He will host a beer dinner at my new Gastro-Pub, The Meddlesome Moth on February 21st at 6 PM. See the flyer below and call to secure your tickets immediately. We sold 40 tickets in the first 10 minutes they went on sale.

Back Story: Twenty Years ago, I had my first Sierra Nevada Pale Ale and it was the beer that changed me forever. I think we all remember the brew that changed the way we think about BEER (and brewing.) Back then their Pale Ale seemed to like a hop bomb yet it is relatively mild in comparison to some Pale Ales and IPAs in today’s market.

I have been in the craft beer business since the early 90′s and have always felt Sierra sets the bar for craft beer. I have had the pleasure of meeting with Ken several times before and I know him to be a very humble man. His story is extraordinary – pioneering the craft beer movement, starting his brewery on a tiny budget in a storage warehouse In Chico, CA and growing it to the Sierra Nevada we know today.

Come meet the legend and enjoy our Chef prepared beer dinner with some fantastic limited offerings.

Cheers!
