It’s summer time and you know what that means: beer festivals sprouting up all over the place. In the next two weeks you can join BeerAdvocate at their always-amazing American Craft Beer Fest, visit the Harpoon Brewery, or ride your bike over to Redbones.
First, the biggest fest of the season: the American Craft Beer Fest! This is one you mustn’t forget. This year BeerAdvocate is promising 75 American craft brewers and over 300 different beers! As if this alone wasn’t enough to get you there, the movie Beer Wars will be screened at the Friday session, and there will be panels discussing topics covered in the movie during the Saturday sessions. Tickets are limited so order yours soon.
Friday, June 19th, 6:00 to 9:30pm
Saturday, June 20th, session one: 1:00 to 4:30pm; session two: 6:00 to 9:30pm
$40 gets you your tasting cup and access to over 300 craft beers!
Harpoon and Redbones' events after the break!
If you’re free this weekend, visit The Harpoon Summer Session. It is being billed as “a celebration of the best of summer--fresh beer and live music.” This looks to be another of Harpoon’s now infamous outdoor parties under huge tents with lots of Boston bands taking the stage.
Friday, June 5th, 5:30 to 11:00pm, doors close at 9:30pm
Saturday, June 6th, 3:00 to 10:00pm, doors close at 8:30pm
Located at the Harpoon Brewery on the waterfront.
$20 gets you admittance, souvenir pint cup, and one drink ticket.
Last but not least, rev up for Ride by for Redbones, their 13th annual bike party and benefit. The proceeds from this event go to NEMBA and MassBike. As this is a Redbones event, it’s almost needless to say there will be music and lots of BBQ, but you should also know about the raffle: two top prizes are an ANT basket bike and an bike tour from Urban AvenTours.
Monday, June 8th, 5:00 to 9:00pm
Located on Chester Street outside Redbones in Davis Square.
$15 gets you a Redbones sandwich, a soft drink or Harpoon beer, bicycle valet parking, and a raffle ticket. There are many more prizes so they urge you pick up a few extra tickets.
