Fred Eckhardt's 17th Annual Beer & Cheese Tasting

Tuesday, July 22, 2008
Seating begins at 5 p.m.

Join Fred Eckhardt, the dean of American beer writers and a pioneer in blending beer with cheese, for a unique tasting of 10 microbrews with 10 gourmet cheeses.

“Cheese coats the tongue, blunting wine flavors, and wine doesn’t tend to have flavors that harmonize with cheese… Beer, on the other hand, has carbonations to cleanse the palate and a broad range of flavors that link up with the flavors of the cheese.” – Garrett Oliver
