Atlas Oyster House is proud to present the next installment of Atlas Beverage Classes (A.B.C.). This semester we will be focusing on breweries, wineries and distilleries, discovering what is going on in the beverage world. In addition to the beverage tastings, we will feature small plates paired with each beverage, as prepared by Executive Chef, Jason Hughes.
A.B.C. will be held outside, on the Harbor View Deck, the first Thursday of the month (January through June) and will feature a local presenter discussing the highlighted beverages. Classes will consist of four tastings of beverages with four small plates to complement each tasting. Classes will cover the basics as well as specific information regarding the history of the brewery/winery/distillery and their beers, wines, or spirits. All beverages will be announced two weeks prior to the event.
There are two classes every month, each an hour and a half long. The first class begins promptly at 5:00 p.m. with the second class beginning at 7:00 p.m. Class cost is $30 per person (plus tax and gratuity), per class, which gets each participant one tasting of each of the featured beverages. In addition, throughout the class, participants should be prepared for “pop quizzes,” where we will be giving away T-shirts, beer glassware, gift certificates and more. Seating is limited, reservations are required; be sure to make yours by emailing taylor@goodgrits.com or calling 850-287-0200. The featured themes for each class are as follows:
April 3: Odd Pelican Beer Company
“To all beach locals, the mystery of the Odd Pelican is a familiar tale. High above the salty waters and on any given day, pelicans can be seen flying in their “V” formation. Regardless of the season, these pelicans always flock in an odd number leading to the never-ending question . . .where is the missing Odd Pelican? After a lifelong research endeavor here in Walton County, we have decided that our local Odd Pelicans are sitting back to enjoy a nice, cold beer. Some Odd Pelicans venture to the bay and some to the gulf, but regardless they are enjoying the good life. The Odd Pelican stands out from the rest and is always on the lookout for a good time. We have decided to take a page out of the Odd Pelican’s book and live the good life. For us, this means opening up a local brewery that provides high-quality, well-balanced, and flavorful beer for our fun-loving crowd. We hope you will sit back, relax, and enjoy the taste of the good life with us.” – Hunter Davis, Owner/Brew Master
