Grab that boot polish and pull on that bolo tie! The Producers of the California Beer Festival are bringing version 3.0 of their popular Boots & Brews Country Music Festival to the Madonna Inn Meadows on Saturday, Sept. 29. Bust out the banjos and fiddles and boot scoot to the sounds of Jake Owen, Frankie Ballard, Carly Pearce, Tyler Rich, and Faren Rachels. Pack chairs and blankets and plan to fill up on food and beer at the fest, which runs 1 to 9 p.m. on the rolling green. Just remember to designate a buddy to bring the horse around when you’re all partied out.
