MILLBURN — Actor Kelsey Grammer will appear at the Kings Supermarket in the Short Hills section of Millburn on Jan. 29 to host a tasting for his new beer, Faith American Ale. The beer is brewed on a former cauliflower and dairy farm in Margaretville, NY.

According to a press release, Grammer noted, “[Faith American Ale is] beer that tastes like beer."

To be fair, that's not the only description given by the actor — who is not a doctor, but played one (a nerdy and wordy one) on TV. He added, "[It has] a character and hoppy flavor that does not overwhelm…inspired by the Catskill Mountains.”

Grammer will sign four-packs of the beer with each purchase. (Sometimes you want to make sure everybody knows your name.)
