St. Louis, MO 63103
Brewmaster's Five-Course Dinner Featuring
Scratch has been on my list to visit for a few years now,
based on friends' recommendations, their unique style
and of course all of the accolades
(3X James Beard nominee.)
However when opportunity arose,
the distance was always a deciding factor for the family.
Much to my elation Marika answered the phone on the 2nd ring
and within 15 minutes
Chef Trevor Ploeger and I were plannning a trip out to Ava
so we could plan the menu and bring the beer to you!
This will mark the 15th year we have hosted a regional brewery
to kick-off our beer festival.
A five-course dinner, expertly paired with fantastic beers
from our friends at Scratch.
Your ticket includes food, beer, service and tax
plus all of the stories of how curiosity and passion
turned this award winning brewery
inspired by foraged ingredients
and the terrior of the Southern Illinois
into a farmhouse taproom
just outside of the Shawnee National Forest.
Easily our favorite night of the year, please join us for great food, fantastic beer, stories and fun.
