A celebration of flight and beer, OBX Brewtag contestants will be competing to see who can launch and fly an empty 1/6 keg barrel the furthest. The action all starts on Saturday, October 26, from noon to 6 p.m. at the Soundside Event Site in Nags Head.
Want to compete? The sky’s the limit as to how creative your homemade flying contraption can be! Individuals and teams are welcome and admission is free for all.
In addition to a rather crafty selection of local and regional beer and food will be available for purchase that day, the family-friendly event will also feature plenty of activities for the kiddos!
