SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., June 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Gordon Biersch is soaking up summer with its annual SommerBrau tapping parties and a new flavorful summer menu for a limited-time at participating restaurants across the country.
Now through July 19, guests can enjoy Gordon Biersch's SommerBrau beer, a golden, refreshing Kolsch-style beer from Cologne, Germany. With just a hint of fruitiness, this light bodied beer with crisp finish offers the perfect libation for summertime enjoyment.
"Every summer has a story to tell and we're excited to tell ours with the rollout of our annual SommerBrau beer and local tappings in select markets, which we're sure our guests will love," said Stan Frankenthaler, chief officer of food, beverage and strategic supply for CraftWorks Restaurants & Breweries, Inc. "This season, we're offering a variety of new menu items made with fresh in-season ingredients to pair perfectly with a refreshing glass of SommerBrau."

- Beer-Infused Mussels – Blue mussels steamed in garlic butter, fresh herbs, house beer, lemon and crushed red peppers, served with pretzel crostinis.
- Beef Tenderloin Salad – Spinach tossed in warm bacon vinaigrette. Topped with grilled filet, avocado, tomatoes, gorgonzola cheese, pancetta and crispy onions.
