The inaugural Flavor Beer, Wine & Food Fest comes to the SnagAJob Pavilion at Innsbrook this weekend.

There’s plenty of beer and wine to be had. Expect to find 50 beers from craft brewers around the world. And as far as wine goes, you can sample vino from popular Virginia wineries.

But this festival is more than just food & beverages. Rather, Flavor focuses on pairings. Local restaurants will match their dishes to the perfect beer and/or wine.

Admission is free and sampling of food and drinks is pay-as-you-go. 2-ounce beer and wine tastings are $2 and a full glass is $5. Food samples are $5 as well.

The event takes place both Saturday and Sunday, May 21st and 22nd, from 11:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. More information is available on the event website.
