FloydFest #14

14 years of FloydFest and it just gets better and better! After hanging out at the new Sloss Festival in Birmingham the weekend prior, our favorite summer tradition kicked off with a drive down to Southern Virginia in our shiny, newly wrapped van. After setting up camp, it was time to bust out the classic Starr Hill balloons to tower over the other happy campers.11204421_10153187088247880_2988302091415021674_n11221278_10153203208552880_75540813588424239_n For those in the know, folks who pour beer at festivals are typically volunteers who don't work for the brewery. They put in long, hard hours and make it happen all weekend long. We were fortunate to have the BEST volunteers on the face of the planet, with whom we danced and laughed our way through the weekend. Not to mention all of the great FloydFest friends we run into from other breweries and years past, it's always an incredible weekend spent in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains.11825590_10153203208792880_5203185715136066447_n 11695824_10153203208947880_5497652474839950743_nOh, and did we mention the music? From old-timey bluegrass and folk to hair-raising rock and hip-hop, it's no surprise why we LOVE this festival. Plus there's nothing like capping it all off with fireworks and a massive bonfire. Check out photos from our favorite performances below, including First Aid Kit, Lord Huron, and Grace Potter. Continue jamming to your favorite FloydFest artists with our playlist.11817237_10153203209067880_4374275078999714296_n 11817158_10153203208412880_1022215493384610990_n 11742789_10153195161042880_5109899608835136939_n 11813364_10153203209337880_3260360939777914187_n   10985376_10153203208502880_2685383845789684996_n 11800426_10153203209797880_8130643986730589742_n 11667443_10153203207852880_5576629106186087465_n 11817125_10153203210082880_1811921413341956648_n 11817190_10153203210147880_5252136158726674087_n
