Napa Blues, Brews and BBQ will take place this Saturday (August 28, 2010) with free admission. The event features a winemakers’ Rib Eatin’ Contest and lots of BBQ for the rest of us: ribs, chicken, oysters, corn, pork, and whatever else lands on the grill.
The brews: 20 micro-brewed beers will be available tasting, including Lagunitas, Pyramid Ale, Dogfish, Alaskan and New Belgium Brewing.
The blues? Belted from three stages, with the Bay Area Blues Extravaganza front and center.
“Ten top Napa Valley Winemakers will sit down elbow to elbow, and at the sound of the starter’s gun, will devour as many ribs as they can in a limited time. Winners will receive awards and bragging rights for the year.
The competing winemakers will be: Mike Drash, Tallulah Wines (Returning Champion); Tony Biagi, PlumpJack & Cade; Armando Ceja, Ceja Vineyards; Keith Emerson, Vineyard 29 & Emerson Brown Wines; Glenn Hugo, Hugo Family Cellars; Jeff Keene, Cornerstone Cellars; Zach Long, Girard & Jonas; Kevin Mills, Trinitas Cellars; Tim Milos, Bounty Hunter Rare Wines; and Steve Reynolds, Reynolds Family Winery.”
