Description

Join us to kick off Plates & Pours - an Abnormal Beer Co. Dinner Series at Pemberton PHX featuring local brewing institution Wren House! The return of something incredibly special, but in a new setting. For 5 years in San Diego, Abnormal Beer Co held quarterly beer dinners with a guest chef and a guest brewery - but last year, had to press pause like the rest of the world. Still unable to hold these dinners in San Diego and itching to safely & responsibly bring beer lovers together for the first time since September 2019, Plates & Pours was born. For the first dinner in Phoenix, Abnormal sought after a brewery that captured the essence & uniqueness of Arizona, while also understanding the power that craft beer has to bring people together. Enter Wren House Brewing. Nestled in a 1930's bungalow in the Green Gables neighborhood of Phoenix & led by head brewer Preston Thoeny, the brewery integrates international beer styles with Arizona character to craft beers that satiate and challenge the senses. Wren House's taproom is a simple space with music but no TV to gather with friends or meet a new neighbor over a beer - focused on the community that this culture breeds. A match made in heaven? Yes. Coincidence? Possibly. Serendipitous? Absolutely. Join us for a fabulous 5-course meal paired with beer curated by Abnormal & Wren House to celebrate the craft beer community in a safe & responsible way.
