Grassroots Festival at Stratto’s is tonight. Hint: There’ll be plenty of microbrews …

There’s a special outdoor beer event taking place tonight, and seeing as the forecast calls for a brilliant autumn evening (is it possible?), readers in the Louisville area should consider coming out.

From 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., the Grassroots Festival will fill tree-canopied patio of Clarksville’s Stratto’s Restaurant, which is housed in the historic, renovated McCullough House on the quiet end of Lewis and Clark Parkway.

Featured will be gourmet brick oven pizza, craft beer and what is being described as rockin’ bluegrass music. For the Curmudgeon, two out of three ain’t bad.

Hope to see you there.
