Why do these things always happen on Thursdays when I can’t go?
Sigh!
From the press release:
Real Ale has been brewing craft beer out of the Texas Hill Country since 1996. From their Brewhouse Brown to the session drinkability of the Fireman’s 4, Real Ale has secured its place as one of the finest Texas breweries. Over the last year or so, they have even been producing our Alamo house ESB.
With all of these tasty offerings, and the fact that they are located right outside of Austin, we figured it was high time to partner up with our friends at Real Ale Brewing for a beer tasting paired with a delectable mini-feast. Join us at Lake Creek as we present a tasting paired with gourmet food and discuss each Real Ale beer offered. This guided tasting will feature a guest speaker who will walk us through the various Real Ale beers as we explore the their catalogue while dining in style. (Bret)
