Sizzling Spring & Summer Beers

Thursday, May 22, 2008

This is THE season for beer as warm weather inspires a thirst for cold, refreshing beer. Picnics, parties and hanging out on the patio all require good beer. We’ll taste a range of beers from Europe and North America that are released only in spring and summer so you can choose your favorite thirst quenchers of the season: IPA, bock, saison, radler and fruit beers.

Beer Class Details

Treasure Island teams up with Louis Glunz Beer to present unique classes for those of you who want to learn about and taste world class beers. Louis Glunz Beer is the Chicago distributor of an unparalleled international selection of beers including the best American and Belgian breweries. The classes will be led by Glunz resident beer expert Anthony Norkus. We will serve beer appropriate snacks. The format, cost and times are the same as the wine classes.
