ST. CLOUD (WJON News) -- The first craft cocktail crawl was held in downtown St. Cloud on Saturday night.

Nine bars and restaurants participated offering a signature cocktail.  A panel of judges judged the drinks.  Participants also received a ballot and could pick their top three choices.  The winners have not been announced yet.

Many of the drinks were gin-based, but some were not.

There were also several bars and restaurants that were not in the craft cocktail crawl, but were a part of the 7th annual Common Roots Festival.  It was the second big day of live music in downtown.  With the nice evening, most of the live music was set up outside on the patios around downtown.

Some locations participated in both the craft cocktail crawl and the Common Roots Festival.
