Parkville Microbrew Festival...Beer anyone?

Aaron and I ventured off to Parkville today to check out the Parkville Microbrew festival.  It was a GORGEOUS day.  I don't think the weather could have been any more perfect.  As Aaron would say, we had the best day ever. 

We started things off with a delictable stop at the Corner Cafe.  This is Aaron's favorite breakfast spot in all of KC.  Aaron will rate any breakfast/brunch restaurant based on their biscuits and gravy.  So far, he hasn't found anything to top this place.  We got there around 11 am for a late breakfast early lunch.  While Aaron decided to go for the usual, I opted to try their lunch menu and had awesome fried chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans and a roll.  It was amazing.  After we stuffed our tummys, we headed towards Parkville.



We met up with some friends and spent from 1pm - 5pm sampling over 40 microbreweries.  Each attendee received a sampling glass and free reign to drink and enjoy the great outdoors.  The festival had several live bands that played throughout the day and plenty of food.  My favorite beer was from Boulevard.  They had a new brew that will be released this summer called "80 acres".  I can't wait for it to go on sale.  Aaron drank a ton of great IPAs. 

I had a wonderful time relaxing in the park, while the guys continued to drink.  It was such a great place to people watch. 

After the festival ended, we headed up North to Molly and Trent's house.  We enjoyed a great BBQ and just caught up on life. 

It was a great way to enjoy a Saturday!
