LAWeekly's Debut of "Burgers & Beer Pairing" at LA's Memorial Coliseum

 Last Saturday, Aug. 8th, at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, the debut of 
"Burgers & Beer" extravaganza featured all-you-can-stuff-in-your-face samples of 
L.A.'s favorite burgers, along with limited samples from some of the region's best 
breweries and live music curated by Spaceland Presents.

Musical acts included country and Americana favorites The Far West Band, Charlie Overbey 
and the Broken Arrows and Geronimo Getty.
"Burgers & Beer" is LAWeekly's new celebration of burgers and beer pairing after Tacolandia's success. It attracted a more adult crowd than regular Beer Festivals in LA.

It is a powerful food-and-booze union, described as "Beer & Full Bites" because many of the 41 restaurants served full size burgers, not small bites. Homeboy Industries was the charity partner.

The festival's lineup included 41 restaurants, bars, food trucks and roadside stands and 35 breweries, many of them pouring as part of the event's partnership with the Los Angeles Brewers Guild.
