Food & Craft Beer Adventure – A Passionate Introduction with Charlie Papazian

Host Charlie Papazian has always had a love affair with great beer and flavor infused food. He and his family have pursued the love of both for many years both at home and abroad. This 2021 season he is hosting an introduction to the elements that lead to enjoyable pairing of food flavors and variety of exquisite craft beers.

"Diversity is the spice of life. When it embraces thoughtfully crafted beer and food, enjoyed with companions, it creates memories that last a lifetime. We'll discuss and consider, craft beer styles and flavor infused internationally inspired cuisine, exploring in thought, glass and dishful servings throughout your days and evenings at Whitehead Light Station.

"Elements of spice, Umami, aroma, flavor, mouthfeel, appearance and after taste will weave its way into the discussion of both Craft beer and the food it is paired with. We'll have thoughtful discussions involving, recipes, ingredients, traditions, styles, discoveries, long and short tales, travel experiences, food, cuisine and our relationship with comfort."

Charlie's "Craft Beer Appreciation" session precedes this experience. That session is full. "Food & Craft Beer Adventure" is a first of kind session offered to provide an additional opportunity to explore craft beer culture. It is a relatively short adventure, but the memories and enjoyment will last a lifetime.

"Join me where Whitehead Island meets Heaven on Earth."

Course limited to 10 individuals.
