Description
Like California's beers!? Come to a pre-opening kickoff for Santa Barbara's newest pub, American Ale, and learn how the early Californian brewers revitalized the craft beer community in The Golden State. On Wednesday, May 15, beer veteran Charles Hiigel will present his seminar,
The American Breweing Revival in California: Tales from the Beer Revolution
Guests will learn about the beginnings and evolution of the craft beer culture in California while hearing stories of Hiigel's personal interactions with these early pioneers. Attendees will get to taste the historic brews Hiigel will be discussing and the presentation will finish with a tasting of vintaged beers from Hiigel's personal cellar.
And of course there will be food! Cert. Cicerone (beer Sommelier) Zachary Rosen has designed a series of beer and food pairings to showcase American Ale's rustic soups and artisan sandwiches. Rosen will present each pairing while discussing the basics of pairing beer with food.
This will be one evening you don't want to miss! Spots are limited to 25 people so make sure you reserve your spot early. With vintaged beers and the first glimpse of American Ale's menu, this will be an unforgettable experience full of beer knowledge and the great beer & food that makes California's beer culture world class.
