After the great success of Noonan’s last beer dinner featuring Arne Johnson’s beers from Marin Brewing, they’re hosting another one, this time featuring Denise Jone’s beers from Moylan’s Brewing from my hometown of Novato. It will be a four-course dinner and should be well worth the $79 price of admission. It will be held at the Noonan’s Bar & Grill in Larkspur (across from the ferry landing) on Thursday, November 15, 2007, beginning with a reception at 7:00 p.m. Call 415.342.1592 for more information and reservations.
