Drawing: Capital Region Brewer's Fest at The Joe
Beer and Summer: two good things that are even better together.
This Saturday is the annual Tri-City ValleyCats Capital Region Brewer's Fest at Joe Bruno Stadium, where more than 30 brewers from around the Northeast and beyond will be on hand with samples of some of their best brews. AOA has a pair of Grand Slam passes to Saturday's festival and they could be yours. The passes include:
+Admission
+Souvenir Sampling Glass
+10 Tasting Tickets
+Commemorative T-Shirt
+Admission to VIP Area with a Catered Buffet
+A Ticket to a Future Tri-City ValleyCats Baseball Game
To enter, just answer this question in the comments of this post:
Beer and summer are a great combination. What is a great Capital Region combination? Maybe it's a beer or wine and food. Maybe it's two places you'd like to push together. Maybe it's something more philosophical. Just something you think is or could be a good Capital Region combo.
The Capital Region Brewer's Festival is this Saturday, July 25, from 2:30pm to 6:30pm. Tickets are still available and range from a $10 designated driver ticket through a $47 Grand Slam package.

My favorite combination for the Capital Region has been the city of Troy and NYC aesthetic of new business that have thankfully sprung up in recent years. I love whats been happening there. The addition of a permanent home for the farmers market will be amazing.

It would be wonderful to "combine" or pair, if you will, the fall, spring, and summers of ,my beloved Albany with the winters of Bermuda...instead of my reality: spending five months out of the year staring maniacally at my computer background, pretending to be sunbathing on that glorious tropical island featured in the picture, instead of huddled at my desk in my winter coat.

The kids and I like to get lunch to go from Our Daily Bread in Chatham and then wander down the street to a little bench and wait for train to go by while we eat our food.
So I guess food + waiting for a train to pass chatham
