Chanukah vs. Christmas Beer Tasting

December 8, 2007

 

Saturday afternoon there was a fun little event at the fabulous new City Beer Store, dubbed Chanukah vs. Christmas — because marketeer extraordinaire Jeremy Cowan, founder of He’Brew, was behind it. Essentially it was just an opportunity to taste around thirty different winter beers, including He’Brew’s Jewbelation 10th Anniversary Ale (last year’s beer) and He’Brew’s Jewbelation 11th Anniversary Ale on Rye. Craig and Beth, who own City Beer Store, put on a great event and the place was packed.

It was a full house for the winter beer tasting.

I liked this cool holiday beer display hanging from the ceiling.

Craig gives thumbs up to a happy crowd.
