Good food, good beer and vintage aircraft marked the first anniversary of Hangar 24 Brewery and Grill, located at 5600 State Route 95.
The one-year anniversary Saturday of the brewpub featured an air show with acrobatic flying and military aircraft. There were jet cars, live music and of course, craft brews and food. And a good crowd turned out to help them celebrate and enjoy the air show.
