The beer-and-live-music partytime greatness of the Penumbra Beer Bash is back! Beers include the fine work of Georgetown Brewing, Odin, Schooner Exact, Stoup, and many more; bands are Broken Water, Dude York, Chastity Belt, the Shivas, and NighTraiN, with Stranger Genius Lori Goldston during the VIP segment. Speaking of genius, proceeds benefit the 2014 Stranger Genius Awards, putting strings-free money in local artists’ pockets. Yay! NOTE: Penumbra tickets are SOLD OUT, but a limited number of VIP upgrades will be available at the door to current ticket holders. (King’s Hall, 2929 27th Ave S, penumbrabeerbash.com, 5–10 pm, $25 [includes seven tasting tokens], $50 VIP, 21+)
