Mark Sljukic, the specialty beer advisor for Lagunitas Brewing Company will be coming to Growlers Beer Bistro in Tuckahoe on Wednesday, November 14th from 7:00PM to 11:00PM. The Lagunitas Brewing Company was founded in 1993 by Tony Magee in Lagunitas, California and moved a year later to nearby Petaluma, California when they quickly outgrew their original rural West Marin location.

The brewery announced a $9.5 million expansion slated to begin early 2012, which will increase its brewing capacity to 600,000 barrels. On April 9, 2012, Lagunitas announced plans for a new Chicago based brewery equipped with a 250 barrel brew house which will also have a 600,000 barrel capacity. Growlers will be pouring the following Lagunitas beers:
- Wet Hop
