If you read this blog with any regularity you know that I love Michigan beer and I like to chomp down on some tasty food. This time I’ve got an opportunity for you to do just the same.
BRU Fest takes place on June 18th at the Royal Oak Farmers Market and features burgers from Bagger Dave’s, wings from Buffalo Wild Wings and 13 craft beers from Michigan’s Bell’s Brewery plus live tunes from DJ Mike Anthony.
BRU Fest is a fundraiser to benefit the Children’s Leukemia Foundation of Michigan and proceeds will go to help children and adults affected by leukemia, lymphoma and other blood related cancers throughout the state.
Tickets are $35 in advance and $40 at the door. They include 10 tokens for 10 beers (5oz pours) and all the burgers, wings and ice cream from Treat Dreams that you can eat! Additional tokens for beer can be purchased for $1 each.
Featuring the following Bell’s beers:
Bell’s Oberon Ale • Bell’s Amber Ale • Third Coast Beer • Bell’s Oarsman Ale • Bell’s Porter Bell’s Pale Ale • Bell’s Lager of the Lakes • Bell’s Kalamazoo Stout • Two Hearted Ale • Bell’s Batch 9000 • Bell’s Batch 10000 • Bell’s Cherry Stout • Bell’s Consecrator Doppelbock
Now the fun part!

BANANA PEPPERS! Actually, I've never tried them on a burger, but I love banana peppers...and I imagine it's taaaaaaasty.
Bacon
Pickles. I am ordinary like that.
special sauce, pickles, onions, lettuce, tomatoes and cheese
Bacon, Bacon, and more Bacon!
Well someone already said blue cheese, so, I'm going to go with mustard, pickle & raw onion. The mustard has to be regular old, simple, yellow mustard.
As simple as this sounds... pickles. Love the extra crunch!
bleu cheese, bacon and a side of chipotle sauce. ok, not just one topping, but, dang!
raw red onions sliced in circles.
Tim has his big reunion weekend the weekend of this...so we couldn't go, but I will tell you my favorite burger toppings anyway...sliced olives, mayo, & RedHot sauce :)
There's lots of toppings that I like to have on my burger, but only one is a must: Cheese! Any kind will do, but a swiss or monterry jack is preferred.
Blue cheese or curry mayo
Just recently I would have said mushrooms - but then I made a lunch trip to Red Coat and had a burger topped with guacamole. Holy smokes.
So - guac. Hands down!
Shredded lettuce — that's when you know you're eating a damn fine burger. :)
Gouda cheese. Thanks Red Coat Tavern for opening my eyes!
Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce! Yum!
Definitely bacon and blue cheese!!! :)
Pepper jack cheese! NOM!
Avocado and cheddar.
fried jalapenos
