With more than 80 craft beers, live music on two stages, new Beer Games and a Sports Zone, beer lovers won’t want to miss this year’s Good Beer Festival.
The festival, hosted by Wicomico County Recreation, Parks & Tourism, is returning to Pemberton Historical Park for the seventh year on Saturday-Sunday, Oct. 8-9, and tickets are now on sale. The festival runs from 12:30-6:30 p.m. each day.
The Local Beer Garden, featuring select Eastern Shore breweries, will be back this year, along with the Home Brew Competition. Learn more about making beer in both Pro Brewer Beer Talks and home brew demos.
Attendees may choose to play new carnival-inspired Beer Games to try to win prizes, and there will also be cornhole, wall hooky and oversized games to partake in. The Sports Zone will feature the Washington Redskins v. Baltimore Ravens football game on the Sunday of the festival. The first 100 fans through the gate on Sunday sporting a Redskins or Ravens jersey will receive a free Good Beer Festival souvenir.
Tickets for the festival are on sale now. Tasting tickets include a 3 oz. glass and as many samples as one can responsibly consume.
