“It’s got that whole entire old school origin to it,” Forrest Kerns said about Bluegrass. “It has a Scottish heritage going up to the mountains. You know, people in the mountains still play it. And it’s the kind of heritage in America that I like.”

The event took place on the Water Street parking deck and featured an assortment of beers. Proceeds will benefit the Downtown Business Alliance.
