Thanks again for those of you that came for the Brooklyn Brewery tasting in July. For those of you that missed it, we have planned another event with another great Brewery.

This Thursday, Sitti will be hosting Dogfish Head Brewery. Special pricing will be available on the following beers:

Festina Peche-A refreshing neo-BerlinerWeisse fermented with peaches. This lambic like beer is extremely sour and paired with our homemade pomegranate and sugar syrup
Raison D'Etre-A deep mahogany ale brewed with Belgian beet sugars, green raisins, and Belgian style yeast.
Sah' Tea-A Modern Finnish proto-beer. This beer is fermented with German Weizen yeast and brewed with black chai tea and juniper berries.

A tasting flight featuring these three along with the rare Burton Baton will be available for $14.

A Dogfish Head representative will be present from 5:30pm-8:00pm to give insight and answer any questions. As always, the courtyard will remain open until 10pm. (Ask for Mark and I may be able to send something extra to your table.)

8/13/2009 9:43:33 AM

corner of hargett and wilmington

8/13/2009 10:02:40 AM

^^should be fine. It's mainly a nice restaurant, not a bar atmosphere at all (though their bar is nice).

8/13/2009 10:09:21 AM

^^^^Yes Christine will be there...

^^^very kid friendly. Plenty of options to choose from for kids to enjoy as well. There isnt a kids menu but menu items can be easily changed to accommodate.

530-10 tonight!

8/13/2009 10:13:05 AM

click the sitti one

8/13/2009 10:36:26 AM

Is food included or will there be food service at least?

8/13/2009 1:52:20 PM

Serving the full menu as always.

The restaurant will function as normal, just with these featured beers and a representative present. Managers will also be present to talk about the beers if the representative is tied up.

8/13/2009 1:58:37 PM

ok great. thanks. Also what time do they start serving dinner and stop serving lunch?

8/13/2009 2:30:31 PM

5

8/13/2009 4:27:12 PM

Wife and I are heading there at about 6:30 to 7... is the tasting flight a table order or done elsewhere with the rep. We love Dogfish Head and the wife has been wanting to try Sitti for awhile now.

8/13/2009 4:55:20 PM

wtf is a tasting flight?

8/13/2009 7:52:23 PM

A tasting flight is a tasting done in a series (tied together in some theme like style, region, vintner/brewery, or whatever).

Just got back... damn good food and beer. We tried the hommos, halloumi,and lentil
soup to start then my wife got the Kafta and I got the Lamb & Okra Stew (incredible). All the beers were pretty unique and both of us ended up choosing the beer for our meal that we least expected to like: Sah'Tea. The Burton Baton was probably what we would choose just to drink, but the spices of the Sah'Tea just went perfect with the food.

8/13/2009 9:33:28 PM

Sitti has excellent food

8/13/2009 9:48:06 PM

berlinerweiss was pretty good. the sah'tea wasn't as great as i thought it would be. the bar service was lacking at happy hour.

8/14/2009 12:45:44 AM

i liked the Chai/Juniper a lot

8/14/2009 12:52:38 AM

Enjoyed the Raison, Sah-Tea, and especially the BB!

And I say it everytime I eat there, but I could bathe in the garlic whip

was fun last night. Went there early to get food incase it was too crowded during the beer tasting.

8/14/2009 11:48:51 AM

you know what I enjoyed the most?

spending quality time with my dear friends

8/14/2009 11:50:13 AM

I got there around 9. Thoroughly enjoyed the beers, the Raison D'etre was my favorite. The Sah'Tea was great, but the taste of tea was too strong in there for me (I know its supposed to be that way, but I just don't like tea). The Burton Baton was nice, but I don't know if I could drink more than 2-3 at once

I wanted food but I've been on a tight budget recently

8/14/2009 11:52:30 AM

2^ aww shucks

8/14/2009 2:37:51 PM

I'd have to say I didn't like a single one

8/14/2009 2:49:29 PM

that's b/c Dogfish Head Brewery doesn't make Zima.











OH SNAP

8/14/2009 2:50:40 PM

hahaha...I don't like that either. or at least i've never had it.

8/14/2009 3:20:02 PM

dinner last friday was excellent.

I really enjoyed the food, as did the crib midget.

It's really not the type of beer you should drink more than one of in a night anyway, seeing as how it's 10% and retails for like $15 a four pack.

8/18/2009 1:55:39 PM

Oh I know, but I usually base the goodness of a beer on if I'd like to have a few at a time. I realize its ridiculously expensive.

8/18/2009 4:21:28 PM

The burton baton is a ridiculous beer. I would definitely drink a few in one night.

Next month is looking like possibly Victory Brewery. Talked to the rep and waiting to hear back.

suit yourself, personally I think it's a little too sweet and expensive to drink more than one in an evening.

Cool, you should try to get them to bring some beers that aren't normally available in NC like Brooklyn did. Personally, I have no interest in going to an event like this unless there is going to be something there that I haven't tried before.
