On March 3rd, over 45 small craft breweries will take over the Navy Yard in Philadelphia for the inauguaral Philly Craft Beer Fest.
With over 120 different beers available for tasting, this event has been created to celebrate and promote the great quality and diversity of quality craft beers being brewed today. The beers will come from breweries such as Rogue and Deschutes (Oregon), Boulder (Colorado), Unibroue and Sleeman (Canada), Ommegang and Southampton (NY), Lagunitas and Stone (California) as well as special local offerings from Victory, Flying Fish, Dogfish Head, Yards and Nodding Head.
There will be beer from around the world as well, with a limited-space Belgian V.I.P. Lounge for “early-bird” ticket buyers.
And the location is perfect for a tasting event. The Navy Yard is easily accessibly by SEPTA and on-site parking is convenient and cheap.
There will be plenty of water and food, great live music, special demonstrations and entertaining diversions.
But all that aside, if you really love great beer, this is the festival for you.
