There’s an upcoming Flying Dog beer dinner on July 24th at the Columbia location of The Flying Saucer. It looks like a pretty cool craft beer restaurant, and I think the dessert course (cinnamon gelato paired with Horn Dog) sounds muy interesante.

It’s hot in Chicago in the summer. Excessive heat and humidity make for a climate where cooling down is a necessity. Based on the need to chill, the Chicago tribune tells us how to make Beer Sorbet with chocolate-covered pretzels. With all those great summer wheat beers out there (such as Bell’s Oberon and Flying Dog’s Woody Creek White), I could see some great applications for the craft beers we all enjoy.
