Trellis + Lompoc Brewer's Dinner

 TWO CHEFS + ONE TALENTED BREWMASTER = AN EXCEPTIONAL EVENING
Trellis Restaurant Chef/Farmer Brian Scheehser & Pastry Chef Sandra Watson Team up with Lompoc Brewery to Bring Guests a Whole New Culinary Experience

Lompoc brewmaster Bryan Keilty joins Trellis Executive Chef Brian Scheehser and Pastry Chef Sandra Watson for an unforgettable evening of great food and farm inspired brews on Thursday, September 10, 2015. During the “Cascade Beer Dinner,” guests will sample a 4-course paired meal with locally farmed foods from Scheehser’s 18-acre plot and brews from one of the Northwest’s top craft beer makers.

Several months back, General Manager Troy Longwith and Chef Brian Scheehser made a visit to Portland and got their hands dirty by helping Bryan Keilty make the dinner’s farm inspired brews. Together they brewed (cooked) the triple hop, and as the brewmaster was cooking the other brews, they added the hops and other secret ingredients from Scheehser’s farm. The beers were aged in stainless and bourbon barrels.

What made this collaboration all the more fun and unique is both Keilty and Scheehser attended the same culinary programs at the same CIA school (Culinary Institute of America) and upon graduation, one became a chef and the other a brewmaster. What a small world!

Lompoc Brewing has been a Portland treasure since 1996, and has created a collection of flavorful year-round beers, plus a ridiculous number of seasonal brews. Trellis chefs have worked closely with Keilty to create a scrumptious one-of-a-kind menu.

“We’re excited to continue this unique experience where we showcase the finest Northwest beers paired with our farm-to-table cuisine,” says General Manager Troy Longwith. “This is a not to miss opportunity to sit down with the dynamic brewmaster, Bryan Keilty, as he describes his beer making philosophy and the amazing beers featured at the dinner.”

The intimate evening will begin at 6:30 p.m. with a reception featuring a selection of passed appetizers. Celebrated guests will have plenty of opportunities to meet and converse with the chefs and brewmaster. A snapshot of the evening’s menu is below.
