Music Mania & Beer Returns to The 420 (Atlanta, GA) – There are craft breweries that put on music events. But few are as serious – or as well-orchestrated – as the SweetWater 420 Fest which returns to Centennial Olympic Park this weekend. Held annually on a weekend that’s closest to Earth Day, this year’s  three-day celebration of serious beer and music (April 22^nd–24^th) features everyone from Kid Rock and Ben Harper, to Ludacris, and Bastille. For more details and the complete artist lineup checkout: SweetWater 420

On The Big Screen – Today’s big screen fairy tales aren’t what they used to be and now even Snow White spin offs have plenty of sexual swagger, horrifying monsters, and non-stop violence. That’s why we’re recommending The Huntsman: Winter’s War to you sick puppies who can’t seem to get enough of this stuff. Chris Hemsworth stars as the beefy hero and Charlize Theron as Ravenna, the bitch goddess from hell.

Collaboration Crazy (Seattle, WA) – The Washington Beer Commission will be hosting their brand new Washington Beer Collaboration Festival this weekend and it promise to be a total blast. This two-day (April 22^nd-23^rd) beerganza, which is taking place at the South Lake Union Discovery Center lawn, will feature 25 unique collaboration beers from 50 different Washington breweries, which should be more than enough beer, for even the most troubled of you. For the complete rundown of everything that will be going down check out: Collaboration Fest

Coachella – Week II (Indio, CA) – The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival kicked off last weekend – and the second part of this musical extravaganza (April 22nd-24th) resumes today. Last weekend was awesome and this weekend talent lineup promises to be even be better – so what’s your excuse?
