Beer fans can choose from two events that will expand their hoppy horizons.
The first is a beer dinner scheduled for Wednesday (as in tomorrow) night at Chapada Chophouse & Churrascaria, the delicious Brazilian steakhouse I reviewed on Friday. The dinner starts at 6:30 p.m. and is put on by New Belgium. It’s $45 a person, and would-be attendees should make reservations by 4 p.m. Wednesday by calling 316-201-4694.

Then, on Friday, the Sedgwick County Zoo is putting on a clever tasting event. It will feature 10 to 12 beers that include animals in their names — such as Carlsberg Elephant Beer. Tasters will visit various stations in the zoo, where they’ll sample the beers and enjoy light hors d’ oeuvres.
The event is from 6 to 8 p.m., and admission is $25 for members, $30 for non members. Reservations are due by Thursday by calling 316-266-8213.
