The event will close with a guided, family-style tasting dinner on Wednesday, May 9 at 7pm hosted by Powell Brewery Co-Owner and Brewmaster David Bowkett. Head Chef Jeff MacIntosh will incorporate the beers with fresh ingredients creating a three-course dinner.

ABOUT POWELL BREWERY | Powell Brewery is a small, independent microbrewery owned and operated by David Bowkett and wife Nicole and opened December 2012 on a nano scale with a focus on creating high quality, handcrafted beers for locals to enjoy. The brewery quickly gained a name for itself within the community and by May of 2013, they were humbled when receiving the prestigious award, “Beer of the Year”, from the Canadian Brewing Awards for their Old Jalopy Pale Ale. In November of 2013, they took possession of a larger space and by the end of September 2014, the doors to the Tasting Room were open. Needless to say, their original goal of staying small and growing slowly quickly changed.
