If you appreciate craft microbreweries, sip an Ommegang. If you appreciate classic rock, jam to tunes by Levon Helm.

This Friday, have a little of both as Cooperstown’s Ommegang Brewery presents the Levon Helm Band and Arlo Guthrie Play Live: Benefit Concert to Fight Fracking.

And if the combination of homemade Belgian-style beer and meeting former drummer and vocalist of The Band isn’t enough of a sell, rest easy knowing you’ll be helping a cause: by helping fight the war on hydraulic fracturing in upstate New York.
