As always, there will be great music. This year’s lineup begins with two local bands, The Nancy Boys, who, in one form or another have played in every Monterey Beer Festival. Filling out the middle of the program will be the rock and roll band The Play, then to wrap up the event, the unique and very fun San Francisco based Gun and Doll Show.
Our always great food vendors; USA Brats, Thaiwaiian Noodles, Monterey Calamari and Chong’s Korean BBQ will be joined this year by Don’s Tri-Tip Sandwiches, so the food choices will be a perfect match with the wonderful assortment of beer.
Once again, the amazing Monterey Stinging Jellies, a local Disc Golf club led by Sean Allen of Monterey’s Trailside Café, will have a booth to give demonstrations.
Thus begins the first year of the Monterey Beer Festival at the Monterey Fairgrounds, home to such greats as the Monterey Jazz Festival, Monterey Blues Festival, Monterey County Fair and others. It also marks the move to a one-time per year event, to occur during the summer. Past Monterey Beer Festivals occurred twice a year in spring and fall. The event organizers decided to really bulk up the selections of great breweries, move to the larger, more appealing Monterey Fairgrounds and pave the way for the biggest, greatest beer festival in this part of the country. So come join the fun. Directions can be found at www.montereycountyfair.com. Hotel accommodations at www.montereyinfo.org/?p=monterey_lodging.
