Living in Iowa, I get excited when any of the local breweries take up arms and find ways to educate the general public about beer culture. Thus, I am posting information received from Olde Main Brewery of Ames, Iowa. In the second week of November the brewpub will be hosting a beer dinner with quite the selection of goodies. Take a gander and let me know if you’ll be in the area and attending.

Olde Main Brewing Co. & Restaurant will host a Harvest Beer Dinner on Thursday, November 12 at the restaurant and brewpub at 316 Main Street in Ames. Four courses will be served, each paired with a different Olde Main beer. Brewery tours and a social hour will begin at 6pm, with the dinner service starting at 7pm. Olde Main brewers will be on hand to discuss the food and beer pairings. A limited number of tickets are available for $40/person (includes tax and gratuity) and can be purchased now at the restaurant and brewpub or by calling 515-232-0553. To hold a spot in the dinner you must pay the full $40 or a $20 deposit. Olde Main Harvest Beer Dinner Courses Course 1 Sodbuster Stout & Wild Mushroom Napoleon – Caramelized Crimini, oyster and shitaki mushrooms in puff pastry with a Sodbuster Stout demi glace.
