Oh no! Don't run out of beer!!

Brewgaloo, a new beer and food truck festival, took place in Raleigh's City Plaza on Saturday and it was a wild success.  This was our view from the stage at 6pm.

Only problem?  They needed more beer!  The event was very well organized and, as it was put together by Shop Local Raleigh, featured some terrific local breweries and food trucks.  The crowd was much larger than expected, resulting in some beer "outages" and even most of the food trucks ran out of grub by around 7p. I should know, I was in line at 7p at the Baguettaboutit truck and missed the cutoff.

That's okay. As with all first year events, lessons are learned and errors are corrected.  All in all, it's yet another feather in the cap for our thriving region.

If you like beer, food trucks, and live music, you don't have to wait long for the next festival...make plans for the NC Beer and Band Festival at the Lincoln Theatre on Saturday, May 12th.  Similar concept to Brewgaloo, and unlimited samples of amazing NC beers for just $25 in advance.
