Evening with a Brewer – Feb 15 2013 @ The Rhino

It’s been a while since CABA hosted “An Evening with a Brewer”, in the past these have been very popular events, and with good reason. We have hosted some of the best and brightest brewers and breweries around, beer was shared, friends made, information was exchanged and experienced passed down (and up!) amongst brewers of all levels.

For the triumphant return of EWB we knew it had to be special.Unique and interesting are always the name of the game, so we have lined up some great talent and tastes for the evening. Brad Clifford has been brewing great beers for a while, and has decided to go pro! He’ll be discussing his move to establish a Nano Brewery in Toronto, The Get Well Brewery as well as his experience in brewing an Imperial Pilsner at Beau’s All Natural Brewing.

As a special treat, the Rhino has secured a keg of this awesome beer and will tap it at the EWB.There will also be a technical presentation on making Meads, Belgian Golden Ales, and general Q&A on making better beer. It’s an evening you won’t want to miss.

Doors open at 6:30 pm @ The Rhino Bar and Grill (1249 Queen St W in Toronto)
