Meanwhile, up in Walker’s Point, Indeed Brewing is hosting its third annual block party called The Lowdown.
In addition to live music, live art, food vendors and a range of beers on offer, the brewery is bringing back the Beer Brulee experience, which red hot pokers heat up and carmelize pints of beer.
Honey Nut Cream Ale and a Smoked Vienna Lager will be released at the event, and you can also try the new Loretta Dark Lager, a year-round malt bomb perfect for the cooler months.
The festival will include food from Twisted Plants, Arts & Large Cafe and others, as well as a live art creation by Jeff Redmon.
Music starts at noon and ends at 10, with The Boogie Bang, Dropbear Collective, Chicken Wire Empire, Browns Crew and You Win!!!
