Beer Lovers,

Homebrewers have been rolling in tasty kegs and bottles for submission to our upcoming beer-pairing dinner at the Fort George. We've selected the beers and tailored a five-course dinner menu (attached) to complement them. Only eight vacant seats remain, out of 35, as of the sending of this email. The Homebrewers' Beer Pairing Dinner 08' was a great time and we hope to make this one even better. All-inclusive seats are $65 per person and the dinner will be held from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. April 15th a.k.a. "Tax Day".

The dates for the Fort George Brewery parking lot BBQ's have been set and will be held on the second Saturday of June through August. The exact dates to mark on your calendar are June 14th, July 12th, and August 9th. In addition to these BBQ's we will be having our 'Liberate the Ales' party on the 4th of July. Ma Barley will be performing with Los Comotosos. Finally, our local beer festival, the Northwest Brewcup, will be held on September 25th though the 27th.

Cheers,

Chris
