At the Washington Crossing Brewfest, taste beverages from dozens of local, regional, and nationally-known breweries in a souvenir sampling cup. This isn’t your typical parking lot beer festival —instead, participants will enjoy a picturesque location in a natural wooded environment.

In addition to their wide selection of IPA’s, this year attendees will be able to sample a variety of beer and brewed malt beverages - including hard ciders, kombuchas, seltzers, spiked teas, and more. Food vendors will be serving festival fare onsite. Live music will be provided by First Highland Watch, a rock ‘n roll bagpipe band, and the park’s Fife and Drum Corps.

General admission tickets are $55 and a limited number of Designated Driver tickets are available for $17.76 until sold out. To purchase your tickets online, visit www.washingtoncrossingbrewfest.com. Avoid paying online fees at Washington Crossing Historic Park’s Visitor Center at 1112 River Road Washington Crossing 18977 from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. daily. Brewfest is hosted by and benefits the non-profit Friends of Washington Crossing Park. Every dollar collected helps educate the public, promote the historic events that took place in Bucks County in 1776, and preserve the park’s colonial-era buildings and artifacts.

Breweries, food vendors, and those interested in sponsoring the event should contact Katherine Manning at kmanning@friendswcp.org before March 15. This year's sponsors include Crown, First National Bank, Open Door Valet, Port A Bowl, Richboro Beer & Soda, Triumph Brewing, and Yards Brewing.
