LAGERS AND LITERATURE
Presented by DESTIHL and BOBZBAY
Where good books meet great brews. Join us for a laid-back morning in the Barrel Room, celebrating local authors, small businesses, and craft beer from DESTIHL.
Browse bookish vendors and local artisans, enjoy a beer from the bar, hear live readings from featured authors, and stop by our Build Your Own Bookmark craft station to create something fun and personal to take home.
