Fall Wine and Beer Tasting Saturday

ESCANABA — The Highland Golf Club Third Annual Fall Wine and Beer Tasting Event is Saturday, Oct. 20, from 4 to 8 p.m. at the Highland. Tickets can be purchased at the door the day of the event, or in advance from Highland Club members or by calling 906-280-5810.

Participants will have some fall fun while supporting local wineries and breweries, as well as local food banks. The Highland event has featured wine tasting in the past, but the event has been expanded to include beer this year to make it more appealing to both women and men, organizers said. This year’s event will feature several local wineries, as well as the local brewery. There will be 16 wines and 14 beers available to sample. Leigh’s Garden from Escanaba, Northern Sun Winery from Bark River and End of the Road Winery from Manistique will all be featuring their most popular wines, and Upper Hand Brewery of Escanaba will feature its favorite specialty beers. Bink’s Wine and Beverage, Pike’s, and Johnson’s Distributing will also be there with their most popular specialty beers and wines.

The cost of the ticket includes six beer and/or wine samples, a complimentary wine or pilsner glass, and plenty of hors d’oeuvres. Additional sampling tickets will be available for purchase and featured wines and beers will also be available for sale at the event. All attendees will be automatically entered into a drawing for free door prizes and attendees can also earn additional entries if they bring five canned goods for donation to local food banks. Bucket raffles and 50/50 tickets will also be available.

In addition, there will be numerous vendors present selling locally made products.

The Highland is located seven miles west of Escanaba on U.S. 2. For more information, call the Highland at 906-466-2791.
