I was excited to see our pal Phil Leinhart from Brewery Ommegang pairing up with JG Domestic for a great beer dinner. Here are the details from Jennie Hatton:
PHILADELPHIA, PA – On Thursday, March 10 at 7 p.m., superstar Chef Jose Garces’ and master brewer Phil Leinhart, of Cooperstown, NY’s Brewery Ommegang, will join forces at JG Domestic (2929 Arch Street at the Cira Centre, 215-222-2363) for a special Beer Dinner (click for menu). Guests will enjoy four courses of the restaurant’s ingredient-driven artisanal American fare, paired with the acclaimed brewery’s most popular and delicious beers, for $75 per person plus tax and gratuity, reservations are required. Best of all, both Chef Garces and Leinhart will be on hand to discuss the food and beer pairings and field guests’ questions.
I had a tour of the Lion with Phil back in '94 or so and it was the best brewery tour I've ever had. We went into every nook and cranny, I think the lion still had wooden fermenters then, and he sent us on our way with a free case.
ReplyDeleteGood guy, and a great time. Although his hair was a bit longer then.
Wow Lee.....I've toured every inch of Lion, but they never ended with a free case of beer!
