One of the first public events downtown this year is Apps and Ales, a really cool event hosted by over a dozen establishments in Bay City. Participants buy a ticket book good for sampling two different beers and paired appetizers at each stop on June 9th from 5:30 to 9:00 pm. 

The Princess Wenonah will be docked and serving Bell’s “No Yeah” blonde ale and North Peak Brewing’s “Tropical Diabolical” IPA along with Sausage & Pineapple Bites and Pierogi from Krzysiak House Restaurant.

Local favorite Marty Viers will perform live on the top deck from 6 to 9:00 pm, so you can take a break from walking and enjoy the tunes before you move on to sip a few more ales elsewhere.

There will be musical performances on the streets in various locations. Tickets are on sale at participating establishments or online here.
