As a PBS special earlier this year pointed out, craft beer is the new wine. So it hasn’t been surprising to see Valley restaurants jump on the bandwagon by hosting special multi-course meals with beer pairings.

The latest is Flancer’s, which will pair four courses with Santa Fe Brewing ales at its Mesa location on Nov. 11. Check out the menu. The cost is $40, and reservation are filling up fast.

Meanwhile, SanTan Brewing in downtown Chandler will host its monthly Tuesday Night Tasting at 6:30 p.m. Nov. 3. Cost is $25 for five courses with ales, including SanTan’s new seasonal Awesome Amber.
