On Sunday, April 30, at 6:30 pm chef Jeremy Weizenbaum has a great five course dinner paired with some of Chuckanut Brewery’s favorite beers. Brewmaster Will Kemper will be on hand to talk about the history and interesting trivia surrounding each of the beers and Chef Jeremy will comment on the food.
