Untapped Festival
Saturday, September 8, at Trinity Groves Park
It's hard to tell what the biggest draw will be at Saturday's Untapped Festival. It's a music/beer festival that pairs bands like Givers, The Antlers, Akron/Family, Blackstone Rangers, Burning Hotels and many more with beers like Dogfish Head, Oskar Blues, Ommegang and Chimay. Whatever it is that draws you, you're likely to find something new to try out.
