The Tap and Growler is certainly making use of their well thought out meeting space, the Barrel Room, that sits behind the wine taps of their bustling new tap room. Just a couple weeks ago they had a Valentine’e Day event that focused on the history of Oregon wine, and now they’re bringing together two rock stars of the local wine and beer scene in for a Wine vs. Beer Food Pairing Event: Jonathan Scott Oberlander of J. Scott Cellars and Matt Van Wyk of Oakshire Brewing.
