Hop Valley Tap Takeover & Food Pairing at The Zipper
Eugene’s Hop Valley Brewing will be the featured beer when The Zipper hosts a Tap Takeover on Thursday, July 7th from 4:00pm until close. Paydirt will be featuring four Hop Valley beers; Sir Orange-a-Lot Pale Ale, Proxima IPA, Vanilla Infused Poster, Alphadelic IPA and more.
The fun continues when these four beers from Hop Valley are paired with selected food offerings from four of the restaurants that call The Zipper home; Basilisk, Slice, Bywater Grocery, and ChickPeaDX. Each restaurant will be cooking with Hop Valley beer and attendees will be able to pair their beer with a corresponding food item. The pairings are as follows.
- Flame Grilled Summer Sweet Corn with Spicy Orange Sauce from ChickPeaDX
(Made with Hop Valley Sir Orange-a-Lot Pale Ale) - New Orleans-style Barbecue Shrimp from Bywater Grocery
(Made with Hop Valley Proxima IPA) - Vanilla Porter Soft Serve Ice Cream from Basilisk
(Made with Hop Valley Vanilla Infused Poster) - Mushroom & IPA Sausage Pizza from Slice
(Made with Hop Valley Alphadelic IPA)
And in typical Paydirt fashion, they’ll be pairing whiskeys with each beer selection!
