Several local food trucks and vendors will be joining us in the beer garden to help us kick off the release of Tepachela, a Tepache inspired blonde ale brewed with pineapple and a touch of cinnamon and pepper. The result is a refreshing and festive beverage ripe for any occasion. While sipping and eating, The Salsa Guy and his team will be on hand with Latino beats and dance routines.
