The UltiMAte Beer Dinner, presented by the Massachusetts Brewers Guild, will offer attendees the opportunity to enjoy an array of their favorite Massachusetts-brewed beers while mingling with brewery owners and brewmasters. The event, which will be held at the Exchange Conference Center on Boston\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s historic waterfront, will be the ultimate beer experience for those interested in learning about the thriving culture of beer in Massachusetts, and for those thirsty for great, local beer!<\/p>\n The UltiMAte Beer Dinner will begin with a beer and hors d\u00e2\u20ac\u2122oeuvre reception featuring limited release beers that are not available throughout the state, including special one-off beers brewed exclusively for this event (a beer list is below). Brewery owners and brewmasters will sample their world-class beers, encouraging conversation about the beer and answering questions about brewing in the Bay State.<\/p>\n Renowned for fresh, local fare, chefs from the Exchange Conference Center collaborated with the brewers to create a menu that demonstrates how the diverse flavors of beer work together with food to enhance one another. Following the reception guests will be seated alongside brewers for a stunning 4-course meal, thoughtfully prepared using local ingredients. Each course will be paired with a selection of Massachusetts-brewed beers that complement each dish.<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Massachusetts is home to some of the nation\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s most celebrated craft breweries,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d says Dan Kenary, president of the Massachusetts Brewers Guild and co-founder of the Harpoon Brewery. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153We decided to jointly celebrate our community by hosting the UltiMAte Beer Dinner.
