The Ultimate Pair-off: Wine vs. Beer with Cheese Print

Tuesday, March 30, 2010, 7:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.
DiVino Wine Studio, 225 Preston St. (North of Gladstone)

For my money, wine and cheese outpace even peanut butter and jelly as the classic combination in the world of gastronomy. Both wine and cheese can be consumed while fresh, simple and young or in their more complex forms when they are aged and mature.

But let’s not forget beer! Beer and cheese are both traditionally farmhouse products. They are both fermented and aged. They both balance sweetness and acidity with fruitiness. Many cheese often have strong nutty or caramelized flavours which link up perfectly with similarly characteristics in beer.

So which is better with cheese? You tell us! Join us for the ultimate pair-off. We will taste six different cheeses each matched with a beer and a wine.
