Beer Kitchen: Catering, Events and Off-Site Tastings

Do you wish you could enjoy the pleasures of Beer Table in your own home, office or location of your choosing? Well, now you can have your beer and drink it too! Hire us to cater your next beer-themed bash, meeting, or gathering of any type. We'll bring Beer Table to you with our new off-site service, Beer Kitchen.

Beer Kitchen is a fully customizable catering service that can provide beer (and food) for your next event or party. Be as creative as you like - just call us and we'll work with you to make your event great. We can work with any size or budget.

Here are a few suggestions:

Informal Tasting: Great for casual gatherings where a formal presentation is not necessary. Justin or Tricia (Beer Table owners) will be on hand to answer any questions about the beers and to serve them to your guests.

For informal events/ parties, Beer Table becomes a festive mobile catering service: Beer Kitchen. We will bring a variety of beers and food from our Beer Table menu to be enjoyed. The selection of beers at these events will be predetermined and based on planned themes, allowing revelers to savor or guzzle a thoughtful progression of beverages. The selection of beers can be broadly based on national or regional distinctions, or perhaps seasonality. Carefully chosen cheeses, meats and a selection of our dried and raw snacks can also be available for pairing with the beers.

Theme suggestions:

German Beer: An overview of traditional styles and historically important breweries

Belgian Beer: A mix of beer from the monastic brewing traditions and commercial interpretations of those styles

American Beer: New world creations, re-inventions of international styles

Seasonal: Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall - an assortment of various beers which most clearly represent the season of your choosing

*Pricing for an Informal Tasting will be determined by the number of guests, quantity of beer and food desired, location and time - please call us to inquire.

Formal Tasting: More educational in focus, these events work well for those who are looking to have an organized gathering. Whether you're looking to have an unusual meeting in your workplace, a restaurant staff training, an intimate gathering at home with friends, or whatever you can dream up, all ideas are welcome.

For events where groups are interested not only in the social aspect of enjoying a selection of beers, but also in a more in-depth presentation of the beers, a Beer Kitchen event becomes a delicious and relaxing interactive learning experience. Justin will bring a tasty selection of beers along with a fascinating curriculum based on his accumulated knowledge, travels and personal experience with the brewers he has met and their special brews. A selection of Beer Table's menu will complement the tasting and presentation.

Theme suggestions:

Old World / New World Comparison: we'll look at the differences in interpretations of beer styles from their place of origin and interpretations from afar

New Frontiers of Beer: an overview of some of the current hotbeds of brewing creativity

Winey Beers?!? (Wine/Beer Hybrids): a peek at beers that are matured in wine barrels, blended with wine and that resemble wine

Brewery, Region, or Style in Focus: we will immerse ourselves in a tasting of something very specific of your choosing (i.e., Gueuze, Rauchbier, I.P.A., etc.)

*Pricing for a Formal Tasting will be determined by the number of guests, quantity of beer and food desired, location, and time - please call us to inquire.

Beer Party (or Cookout): for the celebratory and relaxing times. Not so educational - just fun and delicious.

For groups wanting to enjoy their beer casually in the backyard, on the beach, or in their home, Beer Kitchen will bring a selection of special beers, Justin's fresh, homemade pork sausages (made with Schlenkerla malts) to toss on the grill, and a variety of snacks and gelato. For larger groups, we can make draft beer available with the special keg (or kegs) of your choosing.

Theme suggestions:

Smokefest: a full assortment of smokey beers (Rauchbier), accompanied by smoked sausages and other snacks

Spiced Beers of Summer: a smattering of spicy-yet-refreshing treats

Fruity Beers: a refreshing selection of beers that are brewed with fruit, taste like fruit, or just seem fruity

*Pricing for a Beer Party (or Cookout) will be determined by the number of guests, quantity of beer and food desired, location, and time - please call us to inquire.
