Once again it's on!
It's beer dinner time!
One of my favorite events combining beer and fare is the Farmer Fund Dinner held annually by
Athens’ GA’s own Creature Comforts and
Saltyard Owner and Executive Chef Nick
Leahy at the gorgeous location in Midtown ATL (1820 Peachtree Rd NW, Atlanta, GA 30309) on April 19th. Not only will the
experience be one helluva festive one, taste buds will be tantalized, and of
course world-class brew will be poured in your complimentary collector’s glass,
but it’s also for a great cause—supporting the Famer Fund!
As you can see, I have covered it a few times if you scroll down here. I truly dig it!
There is also a silent auction and the items aren’t a couple of coozies and t-shirts; some of the hardest beers to get in the South exclusively brewed and donated by the Comforts posse will be available to bid on. They also have a fun Farmer Fund calendar available where various farmers and restaurateurs strip down to aprons and other revealing outfits. Here is a look at this year’s addition with the intention of also raising funds for the cause.

The official description is below. Just know it sells out
pretty damn quick, so book your seats asap! Oh, and they have your main man Ale
(ummmm, that’s me!) as a special guest to make sure everything goes as dope as
possible. It’s truly an honor to be there.
This one is for the farmers, Atlanta. Don’t miss it. Make your reservations by calling 404.382.8088.
Cheers!
