Wandering Goat summer series of tasting events

Grumpy Goat Coffee is relaunching the Wandering Goat, its fourth summer series of roving tasting events in Bonita Springs where attendees can meet their local master coffee roaster and artisan food, wine and spirits experts. The Wandering Goat will arrive at Chartreuse Craft Cocktail Lounge in historic downtown Bonita Springs on Thursday, May 22, 4:30 - 7:30 p.m. Chartreuse’s latest coffee cocktail collaboration with Grumpy Goat coffee will be available for sample at the event. In addition, Grumpy Goat Coffee, Chartreuse Craft Cocktail Lounge, Pansardo Italian Specialties, Kristi’s Key Lime Cookies and Olde Naples Chocolate will be sampling their specialty coffee, craft cocktails, Italian tapas, wine, cookies and chocolates.

The Wandering Goat event will rove Bonita Springs businesses throughout the summer. “The Wandering Goat is similar to our monthly Sips and Bites tasting events at the roastery but we take them on the road in the summer to encourage residents to visit other local businesses,” said Brian Abernathy, founder of Grumpy Goat. The Wandering Goat will stop at Riptide Brewing June 25, Ceremony Brewing July 31, Sugarshack Downtown August 28 and Chubby Mermaid Brewing September 25. The tasting events are open to the public.
