The Current Presents PAIRINGS: Beer and Music - Summer Beers!

Just in time for the 4th of July, it's another episode of Pairings: Beer and Music. This time we focus on the summer beer.

Chances are you're familiar with pairings. It's the prix fixe menu you might see out to dinner where the restaurant staff pre-selects each course and pairs it with wine or in more recent trends, beer. At The Current our appetite leans more towards music, but we definitely like our beer too. Voilà! This week on The Current Presents, we explore the pairings of beer and music in the second episode of Pairings - Beer and Music. More specifically, we take a look at summer beers and sit down with some local brewers from Summit, Surly, and Lift Bridge to discuss all the delicious beers you'll be drinking at concerts, patio happy hours, and when you're grilling out as well as the music you'll hear. We also chat with the winner of the Minnesota Craft Beer Week Best in Show home brew winner.

Listen THIS SUNDAY at 9pm and sit back, crack open a cold one and let us take you on a beer and musical journey.

Since this is a Sunday show, here's a list of suggested beers, so you can do your shopping trip early (or across the border):

Summit - Extra Pale Ale
Summit - Pilsner
Brooklyn Brewery - Summer Ale
Dave's Brew Farm - Golden Ale
Lift Bridge Brewery - Minnesota Tan
