April 2016
The Craft Beer and Soda of Appalachian Brewing Company

Hey Friends,
 
The April air is fresh with the smells of blooming flowers and my eyes are itchy, so spring is upon us.  I know they are calling for cold weather heading into next week, but it is time to thaw out and realize Spring is finally here! With the warmer weather comes a lot of fun activities here at Appalachian Brewing Company!
 
From PA Flavor to our handful of events throughout Harrisburg Beer Week, there is always something going on at ABC throughout the month of April. Again for 2016, we are the premier sponsor for Harrisburg Beer Week and will be hosting an IPA Lover's Dinner at our Mechanicsburg location. You can purchase tickets for that event  here

We will also be bringing back our Little Big Beer Festival at the Abbey Bar in Harrisburg! You can find out more about all of our upcoming events at our website,  www.abcbrew.com.

 
I hope you are enjoying the Celtic Knot and Zoigl Lager!  We are excited to be releasing Anniversary Maibock toward the end of the month in preparation for our 19th Anniversary Fest on May 14th.  Adam and the brewers are excited to offer the freshest beer daily to go with the freshest food daily.
 
Thank you for supporting our locally owned restaurants! Remember... the dollars you spend here, stay here! As always, it is our privilege to serve you and we hope to do so soon and often!
 
Cheers,
 
Artie

Chef's Recipe

April is National Grilled Cheese Month! It's in that spirit that we wanted to give you a recipe for the greatest sandwich since the invention of sliced bread, the ULTIMATE grilled cheese;

Bacon Wrapped Grilled Cheese
with Tomato
 
Ingredients:
  • 2 thick slices of your favorite bread (I like whole wheat or multigrain)
  • 2 slices of White Cheddar cheese
  • 1 slice of American cheese (melty and gooey)
  • 1 slice of Swiss cheese
  • 6 slices of bacon (you lucky duck you!!)
  • 2-3 slices of tomato (I like heirloom)
Instructions:
  1. Pre-heat a non-stick pan over medium, Preheat oven to 350F (for crispy bacon)
  2. Place one slice of Cheddar cheese on a piece of bread, Next place one slice of Swiss cheese on top of the Cheddar, Followed by your tomato slices (2-3). Place your American cheese on top of your tomatoes', and your last piece of Cheddar on top of that. Put your final piece of bread on top of your cheeses.
  3. Lay out three strips of bacon horizontally, lengthwise and touching side to side. Avoid any gaps in the bacon, but do not overlap.
  4. Place you sandwich in the middle of your bacon. Fold the two sides up over the top of your sandwich to begin to cover the bread.
  5. Lay out three strips of bacon vertically, lengthwise and touching side to side. Avoid gaps, but do not overlap
  6. Place your half bacon wrapped sandwich, exposed bread side down in the middle of the laid out bacon. Fold the two sides up over the top of your sandwich.
  7. Place the bacon wrapped sandwich, folded end of bacon side down into your hot pan. Allow to cook for 3-5 minutes (but check) before turning.
  8. Flip sandwich over and begin to cook other side (3-5 Minutes, but check)
  9. Using Tongs Hold the sandwich on all its sides to crisp the bacon, or you can place on a cookie sheet and bake in oven until desired crispiness of bacon
  10. Remove from heat and allow a moment to let cheese cool slightly before cutting.
