St. Arnoldus' Fermentation Celebration
St. Arnoldus is the patron saint of Belgian beer who urged the masses to drink beer instead of water during a plague epidemic. Because beer is sterilized in production and the local water was not, the people were saved. A true miracle!
In honor of St. Arnoldus, Fountainhead & Marion Street Cheese Market have come together to create a Fermentation Celebration!! This Sunday, July 17th, from 4:00 - 7:00 you will have a terrific opportunity to try a multitude of amazing artisanal cheeses paired with Belgian Beers.
We will have stations set up throughout the bar displaying the different cheeses & beers. In addition, Chef Sarah will be creating delicious specials using the cheese, the beer, or both!
Tickets are $35 per person if purchased here, or $40 per person at the door. The event runs for three hours so feel free to drop in or out at your leisure, or to stay for the whole time!
