First Annual Capital Beer Classic at FedExField
Is there anything better in the middle of a hot summer than great beer, music and tailgate games? The first annual Capital Beer Classic presented by Goose Island is coming to FedExField, home of the Washington Redskins, on Saturday, July 30. With unlimited beer and wine samplings of your favorite summertime ales, you won’t want to miss out!
There will also be live music from multiple bands throughout the day on the Bud Light Party Pavilion’s ESPN 980 stage, featuring performances by DC’s own Turtle Recall and a hot new up-and-coming group straight out of Nashville with some local-DC ties, The Morrison Brothers Band. Plus, festival goers will have access to some of the most popular food trucks in all of DC, serving up their original dishes for the day. Tailgating games like corn hole, bear pong (think giant beer pong) and giant Jenga will also be available for everyone looking to join in on the fun!
