Beer & Chocolate Dinner at Firehouse Brewery & Grill

Tonight is the Beer & Chocolate Dinner being held at Firehouse Brewery & Grill in downtown Sunnyvale. I’ve been looking forward to this event all week and I’m excited that it’s finally here. With all the great beer dinners being held for SF Beer Week, I’m happy that the South Bay is reppin’ their own events as well.

What’s also cool about this event is that Pete Slosberg (of Pete’s Wicked Ale) will be there supplying the chocolates and doing a little chocolate demo before the dinner. He’s been working hard to give us a variety of chocolates to try. Not sure if the event name was descriptive enough but chocolate will be part of each savory dish, versus this being a dessert thing.

Here are the event details:
