An elevated celebration of Southern tradition, 30A Wine Festival’s beloved Bourbon, Beer & Butts brings together the rich flavors of slow-smoked barbeque, refined bourbons, and refreshing craft beers in a relaxed setting. Inspired by the timeless character of the Southern coast, this is a night of celebration under the stars with the toe tappin’ modern bluegrass sounds of The Hillbenders.
