Funky Firken Fest - Say that 3x fast

     Once again Summerville is getting cooler.  Not only do we now have our own brewery (Oak Road) and Homegrown and Accent on Wine but now we are getting out very own craft brew festival.  It's called the Flowertown Funky Firken Fest and I can't wait. I dare you to say that 3 times fast at church!

     I was speaking with a bartender at Homegrown about this Firken Fest and he said it's going to be amazing.  With over 20 craft breweries and unlimited sampling it's a beer lover's paradise.  The Breweries are focusing on sour, barrel aged and wild brews (no idea what that even is) but it sounds good.  Brad, owner of Coastal said they are shutting down the street that Coastal and Oak Road are located on which is pretty cool and there will be food trucks.  I don't know what it is about food trucks but their food always tastes great.  I can only assume the food trucks are there to help absorb the alcohol from the unlimited tasting that will be going on.  The cost of this event is $55.00 which may sound a bit steep but the bartender told me these are one time brews that will not be made again so it's a pretty unique situation. I know I'm going to try and be there.  What's not to love? I love craft beer and food trucks!
