It's that time of year again, kids. Time to grab your camping chairs, some cash, the phone number of a cab company (just in case) and head down to World's Fair Park for Saturday's 10th Annual Knoxville Brewer's Jam. It's a day of sun (at least that's the forecast), fresh air (well, relatively), great local bands (really only one band is local this year) and enough beer to make you feel like a kid in a candy store.

The gates to the Jam open at 2pm for your listening and beer-sampling pleasure. From then until 8pm, you will have the opportunity to taste the products from 42 breweries from all over the world and a few from right here at home. Local experts from The Woodruff Brewing Co., The New Knoxville Brewing Co., The Downtown Grill & Brewery and Calhoun's Microbrewery will be showing 'em how we do it here in Knox Vegas.

Without a doubt, after a few sips of the awesome ales you'll be in the mood to dance to the sounds of 4 of the area's favorite bands. Cutthroat Shamrock, Todd Steed & the Suns of Phere, Trent Summar & the New Row Mob and the everybodyfields will be taking their turns onstage throughout the day. Surely with all that beer around, you can find the one that best compliments each band!

All this beer and musical fellowship can be yours for the low, low price of $20 in advance or $25 at the gate. You can get tix online until 5pm on Friday, Oct 13th. For more information and a complete list of the participating breweries visit the MetroPulse.
