If this is anything like the movie, it will be awesome.  And if I knew how to get to Brooklyn, I’d definitely be there.  36 brews from 20 different breweries.  If you don’t drink beer because you are gluten-free, or consider yourself a “whiskey-man,” come for the live music by several musicians, including John Forte or the Fugees.

Yee-haw, its time for a hoe-down, darn-tootin!  There will be a buffet of organic and locally grown cuisine and live music from four bands, including the Rude Mechanical Orchestra, and dancing.  All proceeds go to the Growing Food and Justice Initiative, which helps local farmers help all of us.  Sounds like a win/win.  Hope to kick up some dust with y’all there!
