4th Annual Eryc Riddle Pre-Brewvival Fish Fry
February 27 | 2:00–8:00 p.m. | Free Admission, $8/plate
Love beer but don’t have tickets to Brewvival? Look no further—the night before the sold-out event, you can taste Holy City's five new beers (we can wait to try the Notorious P.I.G, a bacon-tinged porter) and grub on some good ol’ fish fry. Started four years ago in remembrance of Eryc Riddle, it's the perfect event to raise a glass.
