June 14th Beer Dinner – Backpacking Through Europe

Ever wanted to backpack through Europe?  How about backpacking through Europe without having to actually carry a backpack and getting to sleep in your own bed?  Well, you’re in luck.  A ticket to our next beer dinner is like a Eurail ticket, only with much better food.

The June 14th beer dinner at Punk’s will feature a whole mess of ridiculous European beers.  We’ll stop in Italy, Norway, Denmark, Scotland, The Netherlands, and Germany.  We’ve got a killer lineup in store for you, including some favorites from gypsy brewers, some collaborations, and some beers you’ve never heard of but won’t know how you lived without.

Chef Dean has created, as usual, a fantastic menu to pair with these stellar brews.

Here is the menu:
