Alamo Drafthouse Homebrew Competition

Those two torrid summer lovers — cold beer and hot movies — will intertwine in a sudsy cinematic orgy once again in the Alamo Drafthouse Homebrew Competition. Heroes of the hops have already entered their best in hopes of winning prizes and bragging rights, and malty minglers will have a chance to partake in tastings when the judges announce the winners on June 26. "We have some contestants who have been homebrewing for many years, even decades, while others have just started," says the Alamo Drafthouse's Lacy Smythe Edmondson. The celebration will take place at Alamo's Mason Park location as patrons pair their tasting portions with barbecue. And those who prefer to pair their beer with a tasty film can stick around for a 6:45 showing of Roman Holiday. 4 p.m. 531 South Mason Road in Katy. For information, call 281-492-6900 or visit www.drafthouse.com/houston.
