Beer for All at Durham Festval
by Arash Jahanian

"Beer" was the word in Durham Saturday.

Beer lovers from within and outside the Triangle flocked to the historic Durham Athletic Park throughout the day to "wet their whistles."

The seventh annual World Beer Festival featured more than 300 selections from 100 breweries around the world, including Franklin Street's Top of the Hill and Carolina Brewery.

Bands entertained the festival-goers, who enjoyed the weather while throwing down one of their favorite beverages.

The event benefited the Carolina Theatre, whose 1920s performance hall is the last of 13 original theaters in Durham.
