A brew for the Zoo

It was the annual Brew at the Zoo yesterday evening from 6-9PM at the National Zoo in Washington, DC.

This is an annual fundraiser sponsored by FONZ —the Friends of the National Zoo. About 20 breweries —and almost as many local restaurants— volunteered their time and donated their wares.

Different than at some other beer festivals, the food at Brew at the Zoo is indeed restaurant fare, not merely hot dogs and pretzels.
