For this event in the Canadian Beer News Dinner Series, we're proud to be presenting a pair of firsts: The first portfolio tasting for beer agency North American Craft, and the first beer dinner to be held at the relocated Smokeless Joe.

In operation for just over a year and led by beer industry veteran Claude Lefebvre, North American Craft represents some of the best small breweries from Canada and the US in the Ontario market. A specially selected line-up of Canadian beers from the NAC portfolio will be featured at this dinner.

Smokeless Joe is an establishment that needs no introduction to most craft beer drinkers in Toronto, although some may not be familiar with the new and more spacious location. The increased space on College Street also includes a much larger kitchen, which has allowed Joe and his team to offer a much wider array of great food to customers.

Seating to this exclusive dinner will be limited to 20 spots, so those interested in attending are encouraged to act quickly to avoid disappointment.
