With just two months to go until the return of Aftershock at Sacramento’s Discovery Park, festival producers Danny Wimmer Presents have announced additional onsite entertainment and unique food offerings for the eighth year of California’s biggest rock festival.
For the first time at Aftershock, Danny Wimmer Presents is proud to feature a collaboration with Metallica’s Blackened Whiskey and Enter Night Pilsner. Blackened, a super-premium American whiskey blend, crafted by the late Master Distiller Dave Pickerell and finished in the earth shattering music of Metallica, and Enter Night Pilsner, a collaboration with the rockstars of craft brewing Stone Brewing Company, will come together under one roof to offer guests a one-of-a-kind musical festival experience. The BoilerMaker pop-up will feature a Blackened & Enter Night Boilermaker, as well as craft cocktails and ice-cold Enter Night Pilsner. This exciting collaboration marks the latest in a long line of amplified guest experiences only available through Danny Wimmer Presents music festivals.
