Tyanne Penado is looking forward to Red, White & Brew.
He’s part of the Manteca-owned Black Orchid Brewery, an up and coming craft beer.
“We’ve done festivals throughout San Joaquin and Stanislaus counties,” Penado said. “This will be our first in Manteca.”
He along with Henry Penado, Joffre Roberts III, Joffre Roberts Jr. and Melinda Roberts are all part of the family business. Assistant brewer Russell Haynes is also part of this business endeavor – the group is currently in process of trying to open Orchid Brewery in Manteca.
“We’ve been craft brewing for years,” Penado added.
Red, White & Brew will take place on Saturday, Sept. 28, from noon to 4 p.m. at Manteca’s Promenade Shops at Orchard Valley, Union Road and the 120 Bypass.
This fifth annual wine and beerfest is presented by the San Joaquin Valley Brewfest Committee, with proceeds benefiting Give Every Child a Chance.
The local non-profit tutoring program services most of south San Joaquin County. Red, White & Brew is one of the biggest fundraisers for GECAC, according to Special Events Coordinator Samantha Worthington.
“We will feature several breweries and wineries from around the Central Valley and beyond. There will also be a variety of food and merchandise vendors (along) with games, music and more,” she said.
