Shop the Handle
With Thanksgiving under our belts, the Christmas holiday is just around the corner! It’s a short shopping season this year and the ability to multitask is key. With that in mind, Midtown Sacramento’s Handle District will be hosting Shop the Handle this Saturday, December 7 from 5:00-9:00 pm.
Within a one block radius, you can enjoy a complimentary glass of wine while shopping at Scout Living, Zanzibar Fair Trade and Felicia Strati. Then, stroll on over to the following nearby restaurants offering $50 worth of food and beverage for $40: Zocalo, Paesanos, Aioli Bodega Espanola, Mangia and Old Soul Co.

Grand Opening of Bike Dog Brewery
Attention hop-loving foodies – there’s an innovative new brewery in town! Bike Dog Brewery opens its doors this weekend for their grand opening celebration on Saturday, November 2 from 2:00 to 9:30 p.m. Not only is Bike Dog Brewery one of West Sacramento’s few breweries, it is also the only one in town with a tasting room. Now you can try before you buy these specialty taps.
“Hop” on over to this weekend’s event to enjoy their expanded tap list, food from Drewski’s and local music. And if you ride your bike, there is a free bike valet service, courtesy of Sacramento Area Bicycle Advocates.
Bike Dog is founded by four Sacramentans with a love for bikes, dogs and exceptionally fresh craft beer. In an effort to keep their beer as fresh as possible, they will operate a three-barrel brew house on site. The small size of this brew house means that only small batches can be brewed at a time, ensuring that the beer is always fresh and the recipes innovative.
Can’t make it to the event this weekend? Follow them on Facebook and Twitter to keep up on latest news, or stop in during their business hours from 5:00 – 9:30 p.m. on Fridays and 2:00 – 9:30 p.m. on Saturdays.
