Pike & Hedges, Beer, Wine and Cheese Focused Dinner

May 13, 2010 - 6 PM to 9 PM in the Pike Museum Room

Pre-Seattle Cheese Festival 5-course
Beer, Wine and Cheese Pairing Dinner
Presentations by the Hedges Family; Anne-Marie, Tom and Christophe and the Finkel Family; Charles and Rose Ann.

Both the Hedges and the Finkels' have a long history in the early days of Washington wine, and beer. The Hedges like to say "It takes a lot of good beer to make good wine." Whereas the Finkels say, "Choosing wine or choosing beer is not like being a Democrat or a Republican. You don't have to choose one or the other, both contribute to a quality lifestyle." So to that end we are mixing it up a bit -- the wines will be introduced by Charles Finkel and the beer by Tom and Christophe Hedges.
Thank you to Naomi Smith and Noble Wines, Ltd. for bringing this amazing group together.
