Wine and beer events this Saturday!

This Saturday, Riverside will be overflowing with tasty wine and delicious local beer!  Riverside’s Intuition Ale Works celebrates the Grand Opening of their tap room from 1pm to 10pm.  And in the evening you won’t want to miss the 8th annual Riverside Wine Fest in Five Points.

The Tap Room at Intuition Ale Works, Jacksonville’s newest craft brewery, opens to the public on Saturday.  They’ll celebrate their Grand Opening with a variety of draft and cask ales, live music, and wood-fired pizzas from Pele’s Fire Catering.  Owner and brewer Ben Davis will be conducting brewery tours every hour on the hour from 1 to 5pm, and guests will also be able to sign up for annual membership to the Intuition Ale Works Mug Club.  Yearly membership costs $65 and benefits include discounts on beer and merchandise, special access to limited release brews, invitations to exclusive Mug Club events, and a bag of free Intuition Ale Works gear.

Don’t miss the Movember Bake Sale at the Riverside Wine Fest!  Expect to find treats like lemon moustache sugar cookies and chocolate butter shortbreads with pomegranate cream.  Delicious, absolutely.  But the best part is, all bake sale proceeds will Movember Jax and men’s health.  Click here to learn more about the bake sale and visit MovemberJax.com for more info on Movember!
