Nitro Rover Beer Release with Live Irish Music by Innisfree

  • Big Alice Brewing Company 4180 NY-14 Geneva United States (map)

Come celebrate the release of a special beer close to our hearts, the Nitro Rover, and listen to some traditional Irish Tunes by Rochester-based group Innisfree.

Music is from 5-8 pm

In the words of head brewer Jon Kielty, “our production team is incredibly fond of Guinness and take the dark stuff very seriously. This is a nod to that done in our own way with 100% NY ingredients and a generous amount of oats.”

About Innisfree:

Innisfree is Western New York’s longest-running Celtic music ensemble, founded as the “Genesee River Band” in the 1970’s! Current lineup has been together 30 years, and covers three counties: Kathleen Cappon of Walworth on accordions and guitar, Mark Deprez of Conesus on mandolin-banjo, Barbara Jablonski of Pittsford on hammered dulcimer and guitar, and Allen Hopkins of Rochester on mandola, octave mandolin and concertina. Innisfree’s repertoire includes a wide spectrum of Irish tunes –– jigs, reels, waltzes, hornpipes, and lovely slow airs –– plus a few strategically placed vocals; they’ve opened for touring Irish musicians, played schools, festivals, clubs and concerts throughout the area, and hosted St. Patrick’s Day at Lima’s legendary American Hotel for nearly two decades. Innisfree’s guaranteed to get feet tapping, and beer flowing, wherever they play!
