Big Red Pour

Where there is Pour there is pouring (most likely of something delicious), so we’re game for any event called the Big Red Pour. On Saturday, Dec. 4, on the lawn of the University of Phoenix stadium, the craft beer and music festival will welcome more than 100 beer varieties to sample, including a few rare worldly options. In addition to beer, beer and more beer, the Big Red Pour will feature plenty of musical acts to entertain between sips.
Concert Lineup:
3-4:30 p.m. the elevens
5-6:30 p.m. Steve Ansel & the Jackson Street Band
7-7:40 p.m. Sludge (KDKB morning host Sludge built a band from hundreds of auditions of singers, guitarists, bass players and drummers Valleywide. Sludge’s band debuts on the stage of Big Red Pour.)
8:10 p.m.-end Kenny Wayne Shepherd (Headliners)
To learn how to pair the beers at the Big Red Pour, local chefs will demo the best food and beer pairings on the Sub-Zero/Wolf Cooking Demonstration Stage. Schedule to appear: Chef Jason Choate, Chef Justin Piazza of La Piazza al Forno and Chef Brett Hoffmann of Haus Murphy’s. Plus, to get you in a festive mood, there will be a Great Lawn Holiday Light Show, from 6 to 10 p.m., featuring more than 250,000 lights in the pine trees surrounding the Great Lawn.
