Grab Your Pilsner Glasses and Steins for Bethel's 3rd Annual Beer Fest

Microbrews and dark ales and IPA's, oh my! Bethel beer lovers can taste them all at the 3rd annual Bethel Beer Fest!

The Bethel Summer Fest and Chamber of Commerce has announced a date for the 3rd Annual Beer Fest. On Friday, July 17, 2015, local breweries from around the state will converge on the Bethel Municipal Center’s lawn to showcase their delicious libations.

According to the committee, “The focus of the festival is to highlight the promotion of craft beers and the brewers that create them. This event is the perfect opportunity for beer aficionados, beer lovers and the casual beer drinker to speak to company representatives and brewers responsible for some of their favorite brews. And it’s an opportunity to discover and taste new brews and special ’limited release’ beers and ales.”

Tickets are $25 each and can be purchased by clicking here. T-shirts and pub glasses are also available to purchase.
