Last year’s Big Smoke Festival was a little too successful: the combination of craft beer and buzz-worthy local bands drew packed, noisy crowds, and fest producer Tallboys Craft Beer House ended up with a few irate neighbours. So for the third annual edition, Tallboys has teamed up with live music venue the Garrison to present two nights of rock ‘n’ suds. The afternoons (from 5 p.m. onward) will feature tastings of nine different Ontario brewers (a ticket includes a tasting glass and two drink tickets), and from 9 p.m. onwards both nights, bands like Cai.ro, Army Girls, and Warm Myth will take the stage.
