The Friday Brewers Dinner has become one of the highlights of the NCHF. Every year, Chef Sean Paxton creates a gourmet feast within the festival's theme, which is paired with some of the best California Micros and homebrews available.

Vinnie Cilurzo from Russian River Brewing Company will be speaking on brewing sour beers and using wood to age your beers.

There will also be an all star panel that will discuss the aroma and taste profiles of various sour beers as we smell and taste the beers together. If you have 6-10 bottles of one of your sour beers bring them and we'll have an open tasting and discuss them. If you want to bring some beers for tasting please cantact David Brattstrom at [email protected] or talk to him at the fest Friday night or Saturday morning.
