Weekend recap and Oysterfest at Coldbrews on August 5th!

Red Brick Brewing's President Bob Budd celebrating their 20th Anniversary in style with their fantastic Bourbon Aged Imperial Stout and a blunt..I mean cigar! 

I hope you had a kickass weekend! I had a ball at Red Brick Brewing's 20th Anniversary; their 20th Anniversary Bourbon Aged Imperial Stout was phenomenal and their impressive HWY 515 favored a saison fused with cider was pretty damn good too! 
I also filmed a segment with BET affiliate Centric on beer for the ladies...

And last, I started planning the promotion for the next art show featuring both Beasts Shawn Knight and Eric Nine called Unadulterated on August 17th in East Atlanta, plus the next AllWays Open Creative art event at Loews on August 23. Here's a sneak peek of Eric Nine's flyer minus the date, location and time which is on the way:

As for what else is poppin', the party doesn't stop in the ATL! And on August 5th, there is the Oysterfest at a hip spot that's a perfect fusion of a sports/oyster bar called Coldbrews in Roswell off of Holcomb Bridge. Here's the Oysterfest info for all you seafood lovers and craft beer sippers (they have a pretty nice selection, too):

Coldbrews' Oysterfest on Oyster Day August 5th!

Today, Coldbrews Sports Bar and Grill says ''The World is Your Oyster!" during National Oyster Day featuring .50 cent oysters and $3 canned craft brews in Roswell.

Coldbrews says: Coldbrews Sports Bar and Grill has taken a whole new meaning to the saying, The World is Your Oyster! On Monday, August 5th, the crowd favorite in-house oyster bar is honoring National Oyster Day in a big way. The sports bar and grill will feature $.50 oysters on the half shell all day! Owner and Executive Chef Mimmo Alboumeh invites the Atlanta area to savor the summertime selection, which includes a variety of sauces such as cocktail sauce, mignonette sauce, and fresh horseradish. Enjoy additional specials, including $3 craft can beer all evening. Here’s to a day dedicated to savory shellfish!

Tomorrow (Tuesday), I head to one of my favorite short-drive getaways, Greenville, S.C., to plan for the upcoming Euphoria Food and Wine Festival and shoot another episode of Cruisin' For A Brewsin'. I am hosting Euphoria's Biergarten and beer seminars so plan to get a ticket. I go every year to hang with my homies at Nose Dive, Community Tap, Barley's, Trappe Door, Greenville Beer Exchange, Thomas Creek...man, Greenville's a great beer city in general!

Enjoy your week! There are more events on deck including National IPA Day on August 1st! Look for my list of the gangster IPAs to try before you die.

Your homey,
Ale
