\u201cIt\u2019s a great opportunity for people to come out and try some of the local craft beer and a great opportunity for the local chefs to have some face time with their patrons as they show how they put their spin on what makes bacon so exciting and fun,\u201d explained Fike. \u00a0\u201cIt\u2019s a match made in hog heaven.\u201d \u00a0<\/p>\n

Samples will be available from surrounding breweries in Amana and Galena as well as Quad City local favorite Great River Brewery. \u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s really great to see people supporting local restaurants and local breweries,\u201d said Fike. \u00a0\u201cWe love being able to tie in with the local community.\u201d \u00a0<\/p>\n
