Complimentary refreshments will be served, and attendees can grab a drink at the bar or a bite to eat from the dinner menu. Giveaways like Berkshire Palate merchandise may also be offered.
 
"With all of the new microbreweries opening in Berkshire County, we thought it would be enlightening to hear from the original trailblazer in the local industry," said Paul Brassard, co-owner of Berkshire Palate.
 
Berkshire Palate first opened in 2018 and serves craft food and drinks featuring many local farms, breweries and distilleries. August's "Q&A" special guest was Alan Paul, artistic director of Barrington Stage Co.
