Here are this week’s news and events happening in and around the Charlotte, NC area!
- Wednesday, September 5th. Illusion of Time – Pilot Batch Release. Triple C Brewing Company. 4 pm-9 pm. This golden ale was soured in a barrel with a mixed culture that produced a complex, slightly funky acidity. Passionfruit added some tropical fruity flavors and some additional tartness, resulting in a crisp, dry beer that packs a significant fruity pucker.
Snifters and Crowlers! Bleu Barn Bistro has dinner covered. - Wednesday, September 5th. Layover Lager Release. NoDa Brewing Company. 4 pm-9 pm. In anticipation of our soon-to-be CLT Douglas Airport taproom, we’re thrilled to release a new beer in honor of our partnership. Coming first to our taproom and soon to Concourse, A Expansion (and eventually to the rest of #CLT) is Layover Layer.
This quintessential American light #Lager was brewed with flaked rice and imported German malts to accentuate its drinkability. The filtered nature of this brew is unlike most craft Lagers on the market, making it an instant favorite for the classic beer drinker.
Stay tuned for the unveiling of the design! - Thursday, September 6th. Brewer’s Dinner with Lenny Boy & Hyde Brewing. The Suffolk Punch. 6:30 pm-8:30 pm. Tickets $65.00 at eventbrite.com.
