A good time at Bock and Rock
Photo by Margie Wuebker/The Daily Standard

Hundreds of people came to Minster's Four Seasons Park on Saturday for Bock and Rock: A Beer Tasting Experience! Visitors had an opportunity to sample 75 imports, microbrews, craftbrews and draught beers. Sam Grice of Piqua grills brats and hamburgers at the Wooden Shoe Inn food stand. Brewmaster John Najeway from the Thirsty Dog Brewing Co. in Akron provided guided beer tasting for connoisseurs during the afternoon and The Wannabees filled the air with classic rock later in the day. This marks the second time the Minster Civic Club hosted the event.
