As they do each year, Uptown Beer Co. will celebrate its annual beer and chili competition, with hearty chilis and beer pairings from seven breweries: BinaryBrewing.co, Baerlic Brewing, Level Beer, Little Beast Brewing, Gigantic Brewing, Threshold Brewing, and Steeplejack Brewing. As the lucky ticket holder, you get to channel your inner Padma Lakshmi and act as a culinary judge while voting for your favorites, and three titles will be awarded for Best Chili, Best Beer, and Best Pairing. MidCity SmashBurger will also sling food during the event. A portion of proceeds will go to the Oregon Food Bank.
