Founded in November 2013, Rushing Waters’ Trout House restaurant features delectable dishes made from fresh, high-quality ingredients, the most prominent being Rushing Waters Fisheries’ farm-raised rainbow trout. Rushing Waters is Wisconsin’s largest aquaculture trout farm and one of the company’s ever-growing event offerings includes monthly drink pairings with local businesses.
On Thursday, March 26, The Trout House will prepare four dishes inspired by Gray’s Brewing Company beer. Hailing from Janesville, Wis., this family-owned brewery has crafted flavorful brews and gourmet sodas since 1856. Gray’s owner and brew master Fred Gray will be available starting at 5:30 p.m. to chat with guests about the brewery’s history and craftsmanship and dinner will begin 6:30 p.m. The cost is $39 per person, gratuity included. Reservations are required and can be made by calling 262-495-2089.
