Attendees will enjoy wine and beer tasting from 2:00 – 6:00 PM. As the tasting winds down, the music heats up with an evening of rhythm & blues followed by the upbeat sounds of big band swing from 6:00 – 11:30 PM.

“Our vision and goal is to create an extraordinary experience” said Alex Haagen IV, producer of the event. “From the moment people walk through the main gate we want them to enjoy every detail of their day. From the fine beer and wine being poured alongside mouthwatering cuisine to the colorful art pieces, hip décor and the rhythmic sound of live music, it all comes together to create a complete experience.”

The food will be a much bigger part of the event this year. Participating restaurants will offer a selection of options that will compliment the beer and wine being poured. From small tastes to full menu selections, customers will enjoy every bite served.
The selection of wines available to taste has been expanded to include a variety of brands from various regions of California. Samples of handcrafted beer produced by local breweries will be featured in the tasting garden. Attendees will enjoy an impressive variety of tasting options.
