Queen Anne restaurant Emmer and Rye starts a new Thursday night “Market Series” dinner this week. It’s a five-course, all-inclusive meal for $70 and it will take place fortnightly on the second floor of the restaurant.

Chef Seth Caswell is partnering with Stone Brewing, a San Diego brewery that makes some seriously powerhouse beers like Arrogant Bastard ale and Ruination IPA. (The labels have a distinct Dungeons-and-Dragons flair. There seems to be some serious overlap between the D and D and the microbrewery communities, amIwrong?)

Caswell is paring the beers with each course, and the cool thing is that at the end of the night, you get to go home with a six-pack of your own Stoners to drink at your leisure.

The food will be sourced from nearby Queen Anne Farmers Market. Call E&R to make a reservation.

I should also mention that on Thursday, Auguut 5, Salty’s is hosting a halibut fish fry. It costs $24.99 and comes with a pint of amber ale, a beer made particularly for the restaurant by Pyramid Brewing.
