Thursday: Beer & Bacon Night with Hanger 24 at The Hungry Monk

Hanger 24 will be the featured brewery for this month’s Beer & Bacon Night, which takes place 5-9 p.m. Thursday at The Hungry Monk in Chandler.

You can get a sampler of six of the beers (all except Pugachev’s Cobra) for $12.

Beef chef Gidi Goldberg has created five special bacon-centric menu items for the evening:
