SCION to host three events in fifteen days! Outstanding Beer and Food pairings! Beer Celebrities!

May 25 – Great Lakes Seasonal Blowout: Ohioans, activate! The Greatness that is Great Lakes Brewing Company will have a full slate of their seasonals on, and we actually think they might last longer than 45 minutes this time. Yes, this includes Christmas Ale. We are told that Scion has more than the usual one keg, so pace yourself. They’ll also have some tasty grub paired with the beers.

June 1 – Battle of the Brews: Allagash vs. Uinta: Each brewery will be pouring multiple rare offerings in addition to their flagship beers to warm up for the weekend’s SAVOR events. Oh, and did we mention that Rob Tod (owner of Allagash), Will Hamill and Steve Kuftine (owners of Uinta), and Susan Greene (Global Brewers Guild) will be there? Your ticket buys you unlimited samples while they last. Scion and the breweries will have kegs set up throughout the restaurant pouring 3-4 oz samples of each beer. The competition is friendly, the beer will be serious, and the beer celebrities are legitimate.
