Every time we go to a concert, we always find a favorite food or drink... Usually we try to find something local or something that we haven't had before. In some ways these food items become a souvenir from the concert that anytime we have again, reminds us of it.
Some examples... during Labor Day weekend 2010, when we went to see DMB at the Gorge, it was Fat Tire and Molson Canadian. During DMB at Alpine Valley in July 2009 it was Blackberry Witbier and Jimmy John's sandwiches.
So this past weekend in NYC it was Sixpoint Craft Ales "The Crisp" and hand-cut potato chips.
Hailing from Brooklyn, The Crisp, as the name suggests, is a light, refreshing beer - like a light IPA with a twist of lemon. And the potato chips were spiral cut on-site, then fried to the perfect crispy texture and seasoned with a mixture of rough salt, pepper, oregano, garlic and parmesan. If you aren't salivating yet, wait until you see the picture below.
The food options at this festival were unlike anything I have ever seen at a concert. They were serving up everything from your traditional burger and fries to pulled pork sandwiches to pad thai (which was really good!). Check out the spread below:
The Festival also set up a Craft Beer Garden that served up Sierra Nevada, Magic Hat, Abita, and the most interesting and new to us - Sixpoint Craft Ales.

Another tasty snack that was new to me was an Arepa, a Sweet Corn Cake filled with Mozzarella. It was crispy on the edges with kernels of corn and filled with gooey stringy mozzarella cheese.
