The Lush Life

How about a nice cold beer in the lush tropics surrounded by animals, reptiles and plants? That's precisely what's on tap at tonight's 8th Annual "Healthy Starts, Happy Hearts" Charity Beer & Wine Tasting at the RainForest at Cleveland Metropolitan Zoo. The $65 per person ticket buys guests access to the wine and craft beer bar, light appetizers, live entertainment and the ability to explore the RainForest. The event kicks off at 6 p.m. and benefits Jordan's Family Foundation, which raises money for Congenital Heart Disease research, education, and awareness.
