Do you like Beer? Head over to Yardley Beer Fest, on May 22, 2010
Yardley Beer Fest
The place to be, this Saturday afternoon, will be at the 3rd annual, Yardley Beer Fest.
This years event, will be bigger than ever. The past couple of years have been so succesful, that the event has been moved to the grass field, next to Fitzgeral-SommerFuneral Home, at 17 S, Delaware Ave, in Yardley . It will take place from 1-5.
The Yardley Beer Fest is sponsored by the Yardley Business Association. (YBA)
As it has in the past, this year, a portion of the proceeds, will be donated to charity. Last year, the cause was the Bucks County Heroes Scholarship Fund, which benefits the children of fallen police officers, firefighters and emergency medical services personnel who gave their lives in the line of duty. The year before, some of the proceeds were donated to the Yardley-Bucks Disaster Mitigation and Relief Fund.
This year, a donation will be made to A Woman’s Place in Doylestown.
This year’s event will have more beer than the previous two years combined, with Earth Bread & Brewery, Sly Fox, Weyerbacher, Boaks, Stone Brewing Co., Dogfish Head, Heavy Seas, Magic Hat, Great Lakes Brewing Co. among the breweries attending this year’s Beer Fest. Clsoe to 50 breweries, are expected to participate in the event.
As usual, there will be great food and music.
The New Continental Tavern, High Street Grill, Righteous Pretzel, The Original Delancey Street Peanut Co., Kerrygold (Irish importer of cheese), and Yardley-based Churchill Cigar will all be selling food at the event.
Music will be provided by The Tune Dude, who is a friend of mine, and an excellent musician, and by Six String.
The day is all about good fun, good food, music and beer, as well as supporting a good cause. What doesn’t go to Women’s Place, will be used for other community programs and events that are sponsored by YBA.
Tickets can be purchased for $35 at the entrance and online at www.YardleyBeerFest.com. There are also, less expensive, designated driver tickets available.
