We’re aiming to raise $10,000 by April 26. Your support ensures Dallas Observer can continue watching out for you and our community. No paywall. Always accessible. Daily online and weekly in print.
To prepare for this fall’s Best of Dallas® 2014 issue, we’re counting down (in no particular order) our 100 Favorite Dishes. If there’s a dish you think we need to try, leave it in the comments, or email me.
It may be hard to construe a glass of beer as a dish, but having a beer at Craft and Growler is a food experience everyone should have, and this list is as good a reason as any to spur you into action.
Craft and Growler boasts one of the best local beer selections in Dallas, and a flight will give you access to four of them for just $10. When you find your soulmate, make things a little more formal and order a pint. Grab a bowl of snack mix and join the fellow beer nerds to your left and right in a passionate debate about the abuse of hops in American brewing.
If that beer is still working for you when your glass is empty, and you’re ready for a bigger commitment, grab a growler off the wall and have a bartender fill you up with your new friend. Any bar can pour you a beer you like, but not too many will let you take some home.
