memphiszoo

Zoo Brew is today! And guess what...I'M GOING =D
I didn't catch the event last year. But this go round, I purchased tickets just in time.
*happy, happy...joy joy*
I'll be attending the event with a family member and a colleague.

From memphiszoo.org:
Beer lovers from around the Mid-South are invading the Memphis Zoo for the second annual Zoo Brew, on Friday, August 29. Zoo Brew is a beer tasting event featuring 40 beers from around the world, provided by Southwestern Beverage and Distributing.

This marks the second year of this extremely popular event, and with a sell-out crowd last year, the Memphis Zoo is looking to go bigger this time around. Cindy Krag Catering will also be bringing delicious appetizers to enjoy with the libations.

The Doc Shots Trio will be providing soulful sounds for entertainment, and guests can delight in the beauty of renowned artist Hayden Hall’s pottery in an exclusive show. Wine and soft drinks will also be available for purchase.

Although there's no limit to the number of beers you can sample, servers will be pouring responsibly.

Samples include several international beers, including Kronenberg 1664 (France), MorettiXingu (Brazil), Warsteiner (Germany), Famosa (Guatemala), Singha (Philippines), Murphy's Irish Stout (Ireland), Tilsburg Stout Brown (Netherlands) and many others. Brews from the States include Abita (Louisiana), Yazoo Hefeweizen (Nashville), and Sea Dog (Maine). Local featured brews from the Naked Lion Brewing Company and Ghost River Brewing: the new beer company from Bosco's founder Chuck Skypeck. We'll also have several home brews to sample from the great folks at the Bluff City Brewers and Connoisseurs.

Proceeds from Zoo Brew will go to support animal care and programs at the Memphis Zoo.

(Italy),
This event has sold out for the second year in a row. We look forward to seeing you next year!
