AVENUES DINNER 3-25-10

Yuengling recently participated in a beer pairing dinner at The Greystone Restaurant in Pottsville, PA. Tickets to the event were $50 and the donation benefited the Avenues Foundation. The Avenues is a charitable organization committed to helping individuals who have physical and/or acquired disabilities. They were originally founded as United Cerebral Palsy, and have been serving the Schuylkill County community since 1952. 65 tickets were pre-sold for this event and guests had an excellent time enjoying the delicious dishes that were prepared for the evening. The dinner featured three courses, each paired with a Yuengling product which was served in the corresponding Yuengling glassware. The complete menu can be seen in the images below. Before each course; Executive Chef Jerry Labooty explained the dish that was being served and Lead Yuengling Brewer John Callahan spoke about the unique characteristics of the Yuengling product that was paired with it.

Thank you to everyone who came out to support the Avenues Foundation. To learn more about their work, visit their website. Also, thank you to The Greystone and their staff for hosting the event.
