16 Tons Cheese Wars: St. Innocent Winery vs Firestone Walker Brewing Company
Cheese Wars is a food-pairing showdown between two ancient beverages. We will feature 5 courses of carefully selected cheese. Each cheese course will be paired with a beer and a wine. Keenan Delehanty from Firestone Walker will choose and present the beers. Mark Vlossak from St. Innocent Winery will choose and present the wines. Cheese Wars past participants have included Ninkasi, Oakshire, King Estate, Brooks Winery, Upright Brewing, The Commons Brewery, Breakside Brewery, Oregon Wine Lab and other notable producers. Award winning artisan cheeses have been sourced from Oregon, Washington, France, England, and Italy.
Which pairings work best only you can decide.
Cheese Wars is a fantastic opportunity to learn about the processes of making beer, wine, and cheese. This is a fun and lively sit down affair!

About St. Innocent Winery: St. Innocent was founded in 1988 by Mark Vlossak who continues to be our winemaker and President. We produce small lots of handmade, vineyard-designated wine from some of the best sites in the Willamette Valley. Since our founding, we have grown from 600 cases that first year to our current production of 8-10,000 cases, yet each wine is still handcrafted in the very same manner.
In 2006, 18 years after St. Innocent was founded, we designed and constructed our facility at Zenith Vineyard. For more information, visit http://www.stinnocentwine.com/
