Festival of Beers

Craft beer is more popular than ever and has even made its way into baseball parks. Today from 4 to 7 p.m., Festival of Beers takes place at Canal Park in Akron. It marks the second time the stadium has hosted a beer fest. Goose Island, the Chicago-based brewery that’s been making a big push into Northeast Ohio, is the official sponsor. For $30 advance, $35 at the gate, you’ll get 15 drink tickets and a sampling glass. Concession stands will be open and the outfield will be utilized as a tasting area. (Niesel)
