Event on 2012-03-11 15:00:00
You knew it had to happen!
You knew that sooner or later, Northeast Ohio's most innovative Chief Tasting Officer, '#MissWineOH' and our number one destination for craft beers, Market Garden Brewery would come together to create the most unique and exciting pairing event of 2012. The wait is over. On March 11th, you're invited to join us in Ohio City to take part in the introduction of Cleveland's newest pairing experience; Beer and Cupcakes!

This is sure to be a pairing adventure that will excite everyone from Cleveland's avid craft beer aficionados to MissWineOH's oenophile friends. A carefully chosen selection of Market Garden's handcrafted brews will be paired with sinfully seductive gourmet mini-cupcakes to create Cleveland's most unique and refreshing pairing experience.

From Pearl Street Wheat to Forest City Brown Ale, we'll be pairing Brew Master Andy Tveekrem's amazing craft brews with unique, one-of-a-kind flavors in mini-cupcakes. You'll even get a preview of the latest and greatest yet to be named Belgian Triple.
Cupcake recipes will be designed and developed specifically for this event by MissWineOH and will be lovingly baked by Cleveland's favorite, 'A Cookie and A Cupcake' in Tremont. This is sure to be the most unique and enjoyable pairing event of this New Year. Don't wait to buy your tickets! We have intentionally limited the number of guests at this introductory event in order to maximize everyone's enjoyment.

For the price of your ticket you will get 6 beers and 6 perfectly paired mini-cupcakes, and perhaps a special guest. This is a formal tasting, so we start promptly at 3pm in order to keep everyone on the same track. The tasting will run approximately 2 hours. Price includes all fees, taxes and gratuity.
