CU Beer Weekend; July 30

Is anything big going on this weekend? The fair ends tomorrow. Great Taste of the Midwest is in two weeks. Bloomington's Bruegala (a festival of beer) is August 27-28. Urbana Beer and Chili is September 25. So, take this weekend off, relax locally, go to a bar, and have a beer... that was a lot of commas.
