CENTRAL OREGON:


WINE 101 WORKSHOP
Flights Wine Bar presents our Wine 101 Workshop. If you’re new to wine, vino-curious or intimidated when someone uses the word ’tannin’ or ‘mouthfeel’- this is the workshop for you! Together, we’ll taste 5 wines while learning what the heck is wine? How it’s made, what makes a wine red or white, how to taste and how to decode a wine label. You’ll leave with the tools to feel more confident when ordering a bottle and hopefully feeling more adventurous to explore the incredible world of wine.


ESPRESSO WARS
Want to watch the head-to-head cocktail making competition LIVE at Worthy Brewing on November 5th? Purchase your ticket to Espresso Wars and enjoy the experience! FREE SAMPLES (for those 21+) of every cocktail made by the finalists, and a seat to watch the competition.
