Every year the Wednesday before Thanksgiving is one of the busiest “Bar” days of the year. Friends, relatives and young college adults travel back to their hometown for a long weekend getaway.
Our annual 12 Beers of Christmas Dinner features craft Holiday beers from Ohio to Belgium and in between and four-course dinner prepared by Chef John D’Amico and his staff. This event is always fun and will sell out.
