Kihei, Hawaii (April 5, 2018) - Last week, American craft brewers, including Maui Brewing Company's Founder, Garrett Marrero, were guests among the United States Ambassador to the French, The Honorable Jamie McCourt, as she hosted a food and beer pairing in honor of the Brewers Association.
The dinner was the first ever food and beer pairing hosted by the Ambassador to showcase four American craft beer styles paired with delicious dishes prepared by the BA's executive chef, Adam Dulye. The focus was to demonstrate that American craft beer has progressed its positioning in the global culinary world. In support of the event, Marrero and a handful of other American craft brewers attended, including Bill Butcher of Port City Brewing Co., Steve Grossman of Sierra Nevada Co., and Lynne Weaver of Three Weavers Brewing Co.
