Oyster Wars

The Salt Line

For nearly a century, New England &amp; Mid-Atlantic watermen competed for the abundant seabeds of the East Coast in hostile &amp; violent skirmishes known as The Oyster Wars. Today, there's no war, just a coming together of the finest oyster farms, best breweries &amp; most talented chefs from New England to DC.
On Saturday September 29th, please join us and Other Half Brewing as we host an afternoon event showcasing the talents of some of the best chefs, breweries, and oyster farms spanning the Eastern Seaboard! Your ticket price includes oysters and tastings from the following chefs and oyster farms. Featured chef's tastings will be served from 4-7PM, and a la carte brewery selections will be available via cash bar. Festivities will continue on throughout the evening until the taps run dry.
