Kilterpalooza features a variety of activities and the unveiling of six new beers.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The event is more than just a release of new\/limited-run craft beer \u2014 although it\u2019s that as well. There\u2019s live music throughout the day (including Tiana and George Foreman & the Grills, as well as tunes being spun by DJ Dad) plus daytime activities (noon to 6 p.m.) including a tie-dye station, temporary tattoos, outdoor games (Connect 4, giant Jenga, corn hole and tic-tac-toe), prizes and face painting.<\/p>\n
A vendor market kicks off at noon, running to 6 p.m. or later featuring 1882 Fruit Based Hot Sauce, Happyland Print Shop, Rewind Vintage, Victory Pints and others, including Kilter\u2019s own beer and merch store.<\/p>\n
On the drinks front, Kilter is rolling out a bevy of new brews (six to be precise) including the Birthday Cake Oat Cream Pale Ale (featuring two kinds of hops, as well as vanilla and milk sugar), the Pickle Pils (brewed with Primo\u2019s Deli pickle brine) and the Soak Up the Sun Hazy IPA, a collaboration with Calgary\u2019s the Establishment Brewing Co. that features a range of dry and cryogenic hops. There will also be cocktails and cocktail slushies as well as plenty of non-alcoholic options.<\/p>\n
For those worried about getting peckish while sipping on birthday brews, there will be hot dog and taco stand specials throughout the day.<\/p>\n
Kilterpalooza is free for all ages, and the expanded backyard beer gardens and patios are pet-friendly. The event also includes a free bike valet.<\/p>\n

The artists of the eastern Interlake area are celebrating 25 years as Manitoba\u2019s original self-guided artists\u2019 studio tour.<\/p>\n
This year 21 artists will be opening their studios and galleries to the public during the annual celebration of arts and culture, which takes place over two weekends; in early summer and again in September.<\/p>\n
For this weekend\u2019s free tour, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily, Interlake-based artists will open their studios, offering behind-the-scenes access to creative processes across a wide range of media, including pottery, painting, glass, jewelry and carving.<\/p>\n

Those who piled into the freshly renovated West Broadway cocktail bar on reopening night probably first noticed the missing taxidermy \u2014 absconded after the previous owners moved on. Oh well.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Supplied<\/p>\n Kyle Cobb (left) and Gabriela Ocejo<\/p>\n<\/p>\n But on top of redoing the menu, there are also new upstairs neighbours: Public City Architecture, who now run the restaurant and bar on the main floor to boot. The latest addition to Langside\u2019s menu is a venue, because every Thursday the bar serves South American-flavoured jazz sets, transforming the West Broadway staple into a music space.<\/p>\n The chefs are Gabriela Ocejo and Kyle Cobb. They perform standards, originals and improvise into the night, sometimes with guests. Cobb is one of the city\u2019s jazz-guitar virtuosos on the rise and the Argentine-born Ocejo (of the all-female jazz septet Juvel) is as distinctive a crooner here as any.<\/p>\n \u2014Conrad Sweatman<\/p>\n Josh Johnson<\/p>\n Burton Cummings Theatre The comedy universe is festooned with stars \u2014 Stephen Colbert, Steve Carell, John Oliver, Hasan Minhaj, Jabouki Young-White and Roy Wood, Jr. \u2014 who have held the title of Daily Show correspondent, the on-air talent who\u2019ve supported hosts Craig Kilborn, Jon Stewart and Trevor Noah over the course of the Comedy Central tentpole\u2019s 30-year reign.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Jim McCambridge photo<\/p>\n The Daily Show\u2019s Josh Johnson is at the Burt Sunday for two shows.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n On the current roster is American comedian Josh Johnson, who released his first HBO Max standup special, Symphony, last month.
