Belmont’s Devil’s Canyon Brewing Company, along with the California Cafe in Palo Alto, are having a brewer’s dinner this coming Wednesday, July 21st. The last time I attended a brewer’s dinner featuring Devil’s Canyon Brewing, it was quite the affair; there was a Michelin-star winning chef at the helm and the food was as complicated as it was interesting. It was also $100 per person. Check the details below:

I learned about this dinner via Twitter. I am excited about this dinner for a few reasons: first, it’s an interesting menu. Frog legs? Nice. Second, at $35, the price point is very attractive and something both Mrs. BetterBeerBlog and I could afford going to. Hopefully we’ll see some of you there.
