Fiesta Vibes – Celebrate Fiesta Weekend May 6th & 7th

FIESTA VIBES & SUMMERTIME SIPPIN’

With warm weather arriving there is the fresh smell of spring and the hint of a summer breeze in the air… the sun, the patios, live music on a warm summer night and a crisp, cold, local craft beer in your hand. Kick off the summer season with Barrels Bottles & Brews Fiesta Weekend May 6 and 7th! Arriving on the heels of Cinco de Mayo we want you to continue the Fiesta vibes throughout the weekend!

FIESTA WEEKEND

Fiesta Weekend brings together 12 Barrels Bottles & Brews partners for one unforgettable weekend with fiesta style food & drink pairings.

Since you’re here we have a special sneak peek into a couple of the delicious pairings:

BREW Microbrewery will be serving up BREW Light Lime with a food pairing by Smashed Apple: mini crispy shrimp tacos with avocado, spinach, tomato and chili lime sauce.  Mmmm… our mouths are watering just reading that!

GL Heritage Brewing Co. is serving up Cajun Pale Ale with Mexican Street Corn Dip & Tortillas by BigMac BBQ – roasted sweet corn, chilies, hints of lime and cotija cheese, served with tortilla chips for dipping (**vegetarian-friendly)

Wolfhead Distillery will be pairing their Grapefruit Vodka Margarita with pulled pork nachos. Satisfying and refreshing!

With 10 other stops to explore we’ve put together two easy-to-travel routes so you can hit all of the stops over the two days. Click here to view both the South Shore and North Shore routes! Now all you need is your Fiesta Weekend amigos!
