Saison Du Buff Trifecta Night at Fountainhead

Saison Du Buff
I just heard that Stone, Victory and Dogfish Head collaborated on a beer called Saison Du Buff. Three great breweries in one beer. Well, what does this have to do with Chicago? Fountainhead on Montrose is having a tasting of all three September 29.

These breweries are always trying different things and to see each's take on a single beer will be amazing. Hopefully I can rustle up some extra cash to get over there and check it out. Fountainhead will also be pairing a beer from each brewery with a particular dish. It's great to see beer nudging itself on to the dining table next to wine.

Collaborations like this remind me of the days when musicians would sit in with each other, cover songs, jam at concerts. It's great to see openness and collaboration in the craft beer industry. It's the spirit of working together to make something great instead of competing for wallets.
