Add This to Your Summer Bucket List
We all love the feel of sunshine on our backs, the taste of a cold brew on our tongues and the thrill of getting a free State Farm Frisbee, but this summer it's time to try something different.
In between the Taste of Lincoln, Ribfest and SausageFest (yep, it's really called that) make time to visit a local farm (don't worry, there's beer) with City Provisions.
Before you decide there's no way you'd ever miss rocking out to Wedding Banned, try this on for size:
Your day will start out aboard a bio-diesel bus where beer and small bites will be passed around as you learn about the day's selected brewery. Once you arrive at the farm you'll enjoy a full tour by the farmer followed by a five course dinner (see ya, meat on a stick!) paired with more beer from the brewery (see ya, watered down fest sangria!). In true summer fashion, you'll end the day with a bonfire before you head back on the bus with your new friends and a full belly (see ya, Speedo!).
