Beer Fest Enthusiast

Beer festivals are like restaurants. It seems like an easy thing to pull off - give people beer. People happy. But as we know, there's a difference between Applebee's and Four Peaks. The Big Pour in Mesa last month made all other beer fests look like a kegger in the woods. Hosted by Draft Magazine, the event had more than 100 microbrews on tap at the Hohokam Stadium. It also had a mess of bar games. It was like a giant outdoor pub. Get a beer, play some basketball. Get a beer, play some bean bag toss. Get a beer, go to the batting cages. Get a beer, play some pool. It was as if they magazine had brought Josh on as a consultant.... Maybe next year.
