Thompson Island & Tröegs Reunite for Annual Beer Dinner on June 17

Thompson Island x Troegs Beer Dinner

Every year, our brewers look forward to one special collaboration that brings together great beer, great food, and great company. On Wednesday, June 17, Thompson Island Brewing will once again partner with Tröegs Brewing Company for our annual Tröegs Beer Dinner.

This one-night-only event features special guest John Trogner, co-founder and brewmaster of Tröegs Brewing Company, who will join our brewing team and guests for an evening celebrating independent craft beer and the creativity that goes into every pint.

The evening begins at 6 PM with a four-course dinner crafted by Executive Chef Raul Rodriguez, with each course paired to showcase beers from Thompson Island, Tröegs, and this year's collaboration release, Side Quest Session IPA.

Side Quest is a bright, easy-drinking session hazy IPA designed for warm-weather adventures. With a juicy hop profile and approachable alcohol content, it captures everything we love about summer drinking and serves as the centerpiece of this year's collaboration.

The menu will take guests on a culinary journey featuring dishes such as Tuna Tataki with strawberry ponzu, Melon & Bresaola with truffled ricotta, a Vietnamese-Mexican fusion "Pho-zole," and a Mango Ginger Upside Down Cake created by Pastry Chef Dru Tevis. Each course has been thoughtfully paired to highlight the flavors of both the food and beer.

Beyond the pairings, the dinner offers guests the opportunity to meet the brewers, hear the stories behind the beers, and gain insight into the collaboration process between two breweries committed to craftsmanship and innovation.

For those who prefer to enjoy the experience at home, a limited number of carry-out dinners will also be available for pickup at 5:45 PM.

Whether you're a longtime Tröegs fan, a craft beer enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates a great meal, this annual dinner is one of our favorite nights of the year.
