Drink Banff (Alberta) – Described as the “world’s most beautiful beer festival the 2017 Banff Craft Beer Festival has returned to the heart of the Canadian Rockies (near the historic Cave and Basin site in the province of Alberta) where things have already kicked off. Produced by the Alberta Beer Festivals Group, this spectacular celebration features the best craft beer the region has to offer in an awe-inspiring setting that is second to none!
On The Big Screen – Has Hollywood lost its mind? It used to be that Thanksgiving weekend was a great time for BIG holiday movies, but not this weekend, that’s for sure. And yes there’s a place for a Winston Churchill biography like Darkest Hour (but that place is the BBC). And given today’s scandalous political environment, we’d rather blow are brains out, then spend one minute reliving Ted Kennedy’s early adventures in Chappaquiddick, which also opens this Thanksgiving weekend.
TV Time & Streaming – Netflix’s Stranger Things their surprise hit from last year, has returned to the fictional town of Hawkins, Indiana for another enjoyable season. Clearly a homage to Spielberg’s early films like ET or The Goonies, Stranger Things 2 returns Golden Globe-winning actress Winona Ryder as Joyce Byers, a single mom in a small Midwestern town where spooky things are going on. And if you’ve not yet experienced this entertaining 80’s throwback, this long holiday weekend might be the perfect time!
