We'll be tapping a firkin of Unfiltered Kellerfest - get here early before it's gone!
Last year Franconia Brewing held an extremely successful Dallas Beer Week kickoff party, which raised hundreds for a McKinney homeless shelter. Dennis is doing it again, with tons of great "German Beer Made Here", and a buffet from On the Border (additional cost).
$15 gets you four beer tickets and a brewery glass - $10 from every ticket sold goes to the Dallas Burrito Project and Fort Worth Burrito Project, a great cause to provide delicious burritos to the homeless.
Donnie Nelson will be in attendance and he's bringing some swag, a mechanical bull, & possibly some Mavs players.
Live music from Lone Star String Band

Kolsch, Dunkel, Wheat, Amber, Sarah's Dark Side (one of only 3 remaining kegs), Oak Aged Fall'N Bock, 2011 Winter Wheat.
