We closed out the Counter Culture season in Portland, Oregon, earlier this month with plenty of cider and, of course, plenty of delicious cheese.
At Bauman’s on Oak, dozens of cheese professionals gathered for presentations from some of the best cheese brands on the market today. Hot Lister Rufus Musser spoke with charisma about Milton Creamery’s famous line of cheddars; Maker to Monger’s Adam Moskowitz brought his infectious NYC energy to the West Coast; and samples of Beemster’s globally recognized Royaal Grand Cru were eaten faster than the Portlandia theme song.
It was an inspired day full of learning and laughs, plus an outdoor happy hour in the crisp fall air. Browse our gallery for the vibe check and stay tuned for our 2027 Counter Culture dates.
