This year Hopjacks has hosted some notable beer dinners including the Dogfish Head's AHopEclipse Now and the Pig & Beer Dinner during ACBW. The Pensacola craft beer community has shown great support for these events, enough so that Hopjacks has since stated that they've decided to start having monthly beer dinners. Their resident beer geek Tim Dohms will continue to plan the menus for these monthly dinners.
This month's beer dinner will take place at Hopjacks - Nine Mile Road on Thursday, June 20th. The theme for the dinner is "Tastes of Latin America".
