'The Golden Child' Release Party At Iron Hill Chestnut Hill 6/12

“All of our beers are a labor of love, and it’s always tremendously rewarding to be recognized for their quality,” says Rutherford, one of Iron Hill’s most award-winning brewers.  “This summer, I’m thrilled to share this thirst-quenching warm weather treat with our friends at the bar – and to raise a glass to another medal for Iron Hill.”

Golden Child earned a gold medal at the WBC in the “American-Style Brett Beer” category; since then, Rutherford has also created Barrel-Aged Golden Child, which spends eight months in a wine barrel for added fruit funk.  Both will be available on draft exclusively at Iron Hill Chestnut Hill until they’re gone – making this a rare opportunity for beer lovers to sample these much-lauded beers right where they’re brewed.  Hands-on brewer Rutherford is frequently on hand, so guests hoping to chat him up about the brewing process may even have the opportunity to do so.  Golden Child is $5.75 for a 12-oz. pour; Barrel-Aged Golden Child is $6.25 for a 12-oz. pour.  Both beers pair beautifully with Iron Hill’s approachable-yet-elevated American food.

Founded by home brewers Kevin Finn and Mark Edelson and restaurateur Kevin Davies in Newark, DE in 1996, Iron Hill Brewery & Restaurant has blossomed from one restaurant and brewery to nearly a dozen locations across the mid-Atlantic, with several more planned for the next three to five years.  Each restaurant is dedicated to producing and serving top-quality hand-crafted beers and cuisine in a warm and hospitable setting, and all are open seven days a week for lunch and dinner.

Iron Hill Chestnut Hill opens at 11 a.m. daily, seven days a week.  Full hours, including food service and bar service hours, are available on their website.  Brunch is available every Sunday from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. From 1 p.m. until 9 p.m. on Sundays, the restaurant offers a prix fixe Prime Rib Dinner, featuring a choice of garden salad or a cup of soup, followed by roast prime rib of beef or pan-seared North Atlantic salmon, paired with a pint of house beer or a glass of house wine, for just $21.95 per person.  Every day until 11 p.m., guests can choose any two Iron Hill pizzas and a growler of house beer for just $25, available for take-out only.  Happy Hour is offered Monday through Friday from 4 p.m. until 6 p.m., and includes special pricing on house and seasonal beers, as well as house wines, specialty cocktails and shared plates.
