It’s Beer Week! Friday’s Brew
Fest Beer Dinner for the 2011
Sasquatch Brew Fest at the
Hilton is already sold out, but if
you know any good scalpers, ring
‘em up. The appetizer alone is
reason to go — bacon-wrapped
dates stuffed with Rogue
Creamery bleu cheese & spicy
barbecue — but you’d stay for
the craft beers paired with the
meal. That’s all before the Beer
Fest starts Saturday at noon. The
festival showcases northwest
craft brews in the memory of
Glen Hay “Sasquatch” Falconer,
a popular Eugene brewer, and
helps fund brewing scholarships
and other local charities.
Dubious, the Vicci Martinez
Band, The Quick & Easy Boys and
the Ty Curtis Band all perfom
Saturday at the Brew Fest.
