The 4th Annual LA Beer Week is almost upon us, and Business N Beer has some great meet-ups happening to coincide with the event. LA Beer Week is actually an 11 day event which begins on September 20 and runs through September 30. So far we have three Business & Beer events scheduled.
Thursday September 20, Business N Beer will be meeting at The Brewery at Abigaile in Hermosa Beach. This will be our second visit to Abigaile and since it is the first day of LA Beer Week, the timing could not be better. I happened to drop by there over the weekend and had the opportunity to talk with Jed Sanford (owner) and Brian Brewer (head brewer). Jed informed me that they have several specials planned for that evening with $3.00 pints, deals on growlers fills and specials on their clothing line. Brian told me that he is working on a few new brews, so if he does not join our group this time, it is because he was up early working on his new creations. Their beer menu has changed since our last visit, so I am sure I will be getting a flight so I can try them all.
On Friday September 21, Business N Beer members, friends and family have been invited by Otto Radtke (General Manager) at Alpine Village to attend their 45th Annual Oktoberfest free of charge! We are meeting at 7:00 PM in the patio area of the Alpine Market, which is directly across from the Alpine Inn and across the parking lot from the beer tent. To take advantage of this you must sign up. Please visit our Facebook page to get your name and the names of any guests on the list. If you have never been, you will have a great time.
Thursday September 27 Business & Beer will make our first visit to Tortilla Cantina in downtown Torrance. Tortilla Cantina now offers about 30 beers on tap, with most of them coming from local brewers. You can find more details on our Facebook page and on the front page of BusinessNBeer.com. We look forward to seeing you there.
Please join us for Business & Beer a small business networking event which will be held at The Brewery at Abigaile on September 20, 2012 at 6 PM. The Brewery at Abigaile is located at 1301 Manhattan Avenue, Hermosa Beach, California. Please RSVP by commenting below that you will be there.
Thursday, July 19 was our second Business N Beer meet-up, and the first of the brewpubs we will visit. The Brewery at Abigaile in Hermosa Beach not only brews five or more different beers, they also serve craft beers from micro breweries around the world. On top of that they have a very nice food menu and their chef always has something interesting going on. Every visit to Abigaile has been a very pleasant experience.
Last week we had 10 people show up for our first Business N Beer, and last night we had 13 people show up. The interesting this is that it was a different group of people so I am confident as the weeks go on, everyone will have an opportunity to not only experience some great local craft beers, but they will meet new people that they can possibly do some business with while enjoying a nice beer.
Our next event will be held July 26 at Monkish Brewing in Torrance. Please refer to our schedule on the front page or our Facebook page for more details. You can see all the photos from Business N Beer at Abigaile on Gotbaddog.com
