Collaborative Beers for Hurricane Dorian Fundraiser
This Saturday and Sunday, September 21 - 22, downtown brewery Central District Brewing will be offering four specialty brews made in collaboration with Emmer & Rye, Suerte, and the Brewer’s Table to benefit Hurricane Dorian relief. Central District Brewing made a stout that serves as a base for the other beers; Emmer & Rye’s adds carrot, lemongrass, and ginger; Suerte’s adds mole; and the Brewer’s Table’s adds fermented Texas mesquite bean to mimic amazake (a sweet Japanese low-alcohol drink).
