What do you get when you combine wine tasting, beer tasting, BBQ, and Progressive Field? One awesome event! It’s Grapes and Ale, “the Hottest BBQ of the Summer,” to benefit Our Lady of the Wayside.
On Friday, June 28, Progressive Field will be filled with saucy BBQ from places such as Battery Park Wine Bar, Hot Sauce Williams, and Famous Dave’s. There will be more than 200 wines to sample, as well as craft beers to try! Add in live music from Colin Dussault’s Acoustic Side Project and a silent auction filled with great prizes and you have a night you don’t want to miss!
Plus, proceeds benefit Our Lady of the Wayside, which provides residential, respite, transportation, and day programming services for 500 children and adults with developmental disabilities.
Tickets are $50 for Premier Grand Tasting, which includes a souvenir wine glass, wine tastings, and food. For $125, you can get VIP admission, which gets you all of the above, plus an hour early entrance for your choice of a special wine or beer tasting, as well as complimentary parking.

Think I’m gonna have to go with grapes too. I do enjoy a good ale too though.

Definitely prefer grapes:)
Do i have to choose? It depends on my day. Some days just call for an ale, others for grapes. I’d say I’m more of a red wine gal on a regular basis.
Following you!

I prefer ale, but I do not know if I can afford to go again this year, after my wife “won” the grand prize Mexican Vacation.
