FRANKENMUTH, Mich. - Michimich -- In a culinary clash that will pit California wines against Michigan craft beers, the Bavarian Inn Restaurant is hosting a "Beer vs. Wine Dinner" on Friday, April 22.

The gourmet evening begins at 6:30 p.m. and includes a five-course menu by Silver Plate Award Winner Chef Phil Fahrenbruch, accompanied by wines from the Wente Winery in Livermore, CA, and beers from the Oddside Brewery in Grand Haven, MI.

Guests will be treated to commentaries by beer expert Ryan Buchinger and wine connoisseur Julie Buchinger as they present their points as to why beer or wine is superior. This course-by-course competition will allow guests to cast their votes for the champion beverage.

The Bavarian Inn Restaurant's beer and wine experience begins with a grilled apricot salad with rocket arugula, salmon and pistachios tossed in a honey ale vinaigrette. This will be accompanied by Wente Vineyards Morning Fog Chardonnay and Oddside's Lemon Elderflower Hard Seltzer.
