Thursday pick: A Stillwater Ales dinner at Jack's Bistro

Jack's Bistro is hosting a Stillwater Ales dinner on Thursday night. There's still room left.

The dinner doesn't appear to be an official Baltimore Beer Week event, or at least it's not showing up on the BBW

But it sounds like a can't-miss event for fans of Brian Strumke (the brewer), Ted Stelzenmuller (the chef), or just a good time.

Strumke says he's bringing a Chardonnay-barrel

Stateside

, wine-barrel

Our Side

(Mikkeller collaboration), bourbon-barrel

Existen

, Import Series v4

Rule of Thirds

and a wine-barrel

Cellar Door

.

The $65 dinner will include five food-and-beer pairings.  The dinner begins at 6 p.m., and there is limited seating. Call

at 410-878-6542 to make a reservation.

There's also still room at Thursday night's

at the Creative Alliance.

Whatever you do, don't sit at home.
