My Beer Recommendations To Your Thanksgiving Dinner Sexy!
 
Darrin Pikarsky: The Charlotte Beer Club
 
The Pilgrims had beer on their voyage, no wine! They stopped here because they ran out of beer. These are beers that should be available in most east coast states. Obviously, there are great local breweries in your city that you can purchase similar styles. Bring this list to your local craft beer store & they can match it up with your local brews. Here in Charlotte, you can hit The Common Market or Brawley’s Beverage.

Don’t Kill Your Pallet! Start it off easy. It’s the biggest food day of the year…easy big fella.
 
* Saranac Nut Brown Lager
