Tickets are on sale now for Lonerider Beer's annual Showdown event in downtown Raleigh scheduled March 23.

The event, which will be held in Moore Square, features craft beer, music and wild west games (corn hole, Lasso Shotgun Betty and a "gunfight" at the OK Corral.)

In the beer tent you can expect, Shotgun Betty Hefeweizen, Sweet Josie Brown Ale, Peacemaker Pale Ale and The Preacher Saison.

The rare and seasonal tent will feature Deadeye Jack Porter, Mad Doc Weizenbock and eight different casks.

The band lineup for the Showdown will be Dillon Fence, Lila, Jack the Radio, The Debonzo Brothers and Dark Water Rising.

As always, Brew It Forward V will be a huge component of the event. Homebrewers are invited to participate. See the Brew It Forward site for more information on how to enter. The official judging will take place at Tir na Nog during the Showdown.

The Showdown will benefit Nourish International, a non-profit that hopes to make an impact on extreme poverty.

General admission tickets are $12 each and get your samples of four different beers

The VIP tickets, which go for $75 each, get you the food and beers included in the ticket price in your own corralled area.
