Learn about the benefits of using beer in spa treatments with Cindy Jones, Ph.D., herb grower and educator, owner of farmers market vendor Colorado Aromatics. Cindy will present on the benefits of craft beer for healthy looking skin and hair and walk you through a Craft Beer Facial Treatment in the brewery. 

Whole Foods' Beer Sale Tomorrow

The Whole Foods store on Pearl Street has a sandwich board outside proclaiming that for tomorrow only, the 29th, all beer in its wine and spirits store next door will be 20% off. I've generally found that for everyday prices, you'll find better ones elsewhere, but you can't beat the Whole Foods location for convenience (although Hazel's is only a couple of blocks away) and now with an across the board beer sale for temptation.

Chili and Beer Festivals In Superior

Don't those two sound like a match made in heaven? On September 6th, two festivals will take place together from 2 to 6 pm in Community Park in Superior: the 14th annual Chili Fest, plus a new Beer Fest featuring at least 15 local craft breweries. You can find info regarding the Beer Fest here, and also the Chili Fest here.

Whole Foods' Beer Sale Wednesday

The Wine & Spirits store at the Pearl Street Whole Foods will have all beer 20% off this Wednesday, just in time for the 4th of July Thursday.  Here's what they say:

Fourth of July Beer Sale!

Craft Food And Beer Tastings At WFM Pearl

The Wine and Spirits Store at the Pearl Street Whole Foods is initiating a promising-sounding new tasting tomorrow that will happen on the first Thursday of each month, pairing fine food samples and beer.  Left Hand's Polestar Pilsner is well liked in this house, so I'm intrigued by the idea of pairing it with an oyster.  Yup, I can see it.  Here are the details from Whole Foods:

Whole Foods Market Boulder


Join us at the Pearl Street Wine and Spirits Store tomorrow for a new event we're calling "First Thursday Craft Food and Beer Tastings." First Thursday of every month, we'll be sampling an awesome beer and some delicious eats from our catering team. Tomorrow from 5:30-7pm the menu features Polestar Pilsner from Left Hand Brewery, expertly paired with a Drunken Kumamoto Oyster. Did I mention it's free? See you there!

Beer, Wine, Cheese, Chile Tasting in Superior

This Thursday, 9/2, the Whole Foods store in Superior will partner with Superior Liquor to present a free tasting that has to be about the most challenging one I've ever heard of. From 6:30 to 8:00 pm, they will feature "roasted Hatch green chilies paired with American artisanal & Mexican cheeses, beers from Wynkoop Brewery and wines from Veraison Distributing." Chilies and cheese, okay, chilies and beer, even better, but chilies and wine? Wonder how they will pull that one off. While the event is free, please note that you have to receive an invitation, either by signing up at the store in advance, or by emailing kathy.ongarato@wholefoods.com.
