BARRY COURTER: Lisa, it’s that time of the summer again where some clever folks have put together an event that combines live music and beer. Lots of both, actually.
The Southern Brewers Festival is Saturday at Ross’s Landing and, in addition to nearly 100 beers from brewers all over the country, they will have music from JJ Grey & Mofro, Perpetual Groove, Mike Farris & the Roseland Rhythm Revue and Nick Lutsko & the Gimmix.
Lisa Denton and Barry Courter
LISA DENTON: It’s good that they throw in all those bands. Without them, you just have heat and beer, otherwise known as lawn-mowing day.
It’s a good idea to buy your tickets and beer tokens early (www.southernbrewersfestival.com). They’ll cost more at the gate. You might even want to spring for the VIP pass, which includes not only bottomless beers but access to private restrooms. At a beer festival, the V in VIP stands for “Voluminously.” I think you can figure out the rest.
BARRY: This stuff just flows right of you, doesn’t it?
