They're back! Menus set for monthly beer dinners

Monday, September 10, 2012

The off-season at our coastal Delaware brewpub gives our kitchen a chance to get a little reckless. Case in point: the new lineup of monthly beer dinners.

There's a mix of classic and new themes this year, including Oktoberfest, Ancient Ales and Raw.

"It's fun," says Chef Dennis Marcoux. "Making something for 60 people is a hell of a lot easier than making something for the 10,000 who come through here during the week, so we get to do a lot of things we don't normally get to do."

Dennis gets as many of the ingredients as possible from local farms, and of course, the beers are imported from the next room.

Each five-course dinner is limited to 60 people, and reservations are a must. Tickets are about $70 (including tip) and available by emailing your name and phone number to Brewpubevents@dogfish.com. He'll get back to you for credit card information and other details.

Check out the lineup and links to the mouth-watering menus.
