As with the previous two Ogle/Bier prost events at Caesar's, I've had a hand in organizing the beer selections. The new twist this year is that we've grouped the world beers around the world food stations, which is to say that instead of going to the Mexico table and finding Mexican food prepared by the Caesar's cooking staff alongside all Mexican beers, you'll find the Mexican food and beers from various locales that I think might accompany the food.
There'll be six such groupings: America, Asia, England, Germany, Mexico and Desserts at large. There'll also be a sampling-only "local micro" table with NABC and BBC beers.
There's a catch from my end: I can't attend owing to my 30th high school class reunion, which I'll be hosting Friday night at the pub. The event still sounds like fun, and I recommend it.
