Brew, Brats, & Bands at the Barn to benefit Canton Historical Society

Preparations are under way for Canton’s annual Brew, Brats, & Bands at the Barn fundraising event that will held from 6 to 9 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 10, in Preservation Park, despite no longer having a barn at its location.
Proceeds from this beer-tasting event will once again support the Canton Historical Society.
Event planners are confident that the scenic location of Preservation Park, located at 500 N. Ridge Rd., will continue to remain the perfect backdrop for this popular fall event.
“This event will always be affectionately known as B4 because it was ‘Brews, Brats and Bands at the Barn’ and it will remain so even without the physical barn,” said Gregg King, Canton Historical Society member and fundraiser organizer. “Each September it is an honor to host this annual fall tradition at a park that preserves and celebrates historical buildings.”
Admission includes seven drink tickets each good for a four-ounce beer-tasting sample. Attendees will be able to choose from more than 75 different craft and specialty beers from all the over the country for event-goers to sample in one location, including beers from local breweries such as Canton Brew Works, Bearded Lamb Brewing Company, Ypsi Alehouse and North Center Brewing Company. Brats with all the fixings will also be included with admission, as well as a keepsake beer tasting mug. Musical entertainment will be provided throughout the evening by “Standing Room Only” performing classic Rock hits and “All Directions,” playing popular Rhythm and Blues standards.
Tickets are $40 if purchased online before Sept. 9, and $45 at the door (cash only). Get tickets online at https://events.beerfests.com. Designated Driver tickets are available for $10. Additional beer-tasting tickets are available for purchase; receive four additional tickets for $5.
