Blacksburg Brew Do Beer Dinner to feature hard-to-find styles Oct. 5
The Blacksburg Partnership and The Inn at Virginia Tech and Skelton Conference Center announce the second-annual Blacksburg Brew Do Beer Dinner to be held Friday, Oct. 5 in Preston’s Restaurant.
John Boyer, an esteemed Virginia Tech professor, beer and wine connoisseur, and famed “Plaid Avenger,” will host the interactive event and lead guests on a journey for their taste buds. Preston’s chef Jason Smith will explain how all of the elements of the food and beer marry to create these delightful pairings.
