One look at our menu and you’ll see that we’re fans of recipes that use beer as an ingredient. As allied members of the San Diego Brewers Guild, supporting the local craft beer scene is an integral part of our mission to promote good beer. Naturally, we get really excited when local brewers take interest in San Diego’s culinary scene; and this Sunday, all the things we love will be celebrated rooftop at Stingaree at the event ‘Craft Beer: Grain to Glass, Farm to Table.’ Cooks Confab, a group consisting of SD’s most respected chefs, organize themed, collaborative dinners every few months. This summer, the culinary collective chose to team up with 6 San Diego brewers (all of which you can find at Neighborhood) for one buzz-worthy night of fine food prepared with local beer. A portion of the proceeds will benefit Slow Food Urban San Diego, a group who advocates farmers, artisans and the overall celebration of ‘green’ foods. 

Ok, back to the food and beer. Brewers and chefs have teamed up to create 2-3 dishes each for the multi-course extravaganza. Among the brewers/participating restaurants whose combined talents are sure to provide a memorable evening include the following.
