Are you ready to enjoy lots of great wine, blues, brew & BBQ?

Kick off Summer on Friday, May 19th at Grapes & Ale, Presented by Giant Eagle, and enjoy the hottest BBQ of the year, with samplings of more than 300 internationally acclaimed wines, craft brews and tastes from some of the sauciest BBQ restaurants in town.

After this cold and rainy weather we've been having, I'm ready to start thinking about summer. And my favorite event to kick it off is Our Lady of the Wayside's Grapes & Ale. It's SO much fun! If you've never experienced it, you are missing out! There are three ways to enjoy this event:
