The festie on 4/20 is the biggest fundraiser of the year for the Massachusetts Brewers Guild
On the heels of another successful Mass Beer Week, the state association for craft brewers is thrilled to remind you we’re throwing another party next month.
The Massachusetts Craft Brewers Festival returns to the Boston Center for the Arts Cyclorama in Boston on Saturday, April 20, featuring more than 40 Bay State breweries (and seltzer, and cider makers). The biggest fundraiser of the year for the Massachusetts Brewers Guild, ticket sales go right back to the craft beer industry by supporting the MBG’s programs and initiatives. The non-profit, membership-based MBG promotes and protects the interests of craft brewers in Massachusetts through industry and educational events, by providing resources and marketing support to brewers, by highlighting the Bay State as a top travel destination for craft beer, and by working at the legislative level to be a voice of craft brewers on Beacon Hill.
During the Mass Craft Brewers Fest, brewmasters and bosses from across Massachusetts will be serving up beer, cider, and seltzers they are most proud of: This annual event is truly by beer lovers, for beer lovers. Across two sessions from 1 to 4:30 p.m. and 6 to 9:30 p.m., ticket holders will have the chance to try unlimited samples from participating breweries (responsibly, of course) — all under one psychedelic, circular, sun-dappled roof.
The Sausage Guy, Wild Fox Pierogi, and Phyghit Pretzel Necklaces will return as featured food vendors for this year’s Mass Craft Brewers Fest. Outside snacks and pretzel necklaces are permitted, as are empty canteens to refill with water or sealed water bottles. Remember: H2o is your friend.
Tickets to the Mass Craft Brewers Fest are $55 and include unlimited beverage samples and good vibes. Designated driver tickets are available for $10. Last year’s event was completely sold out, so we highly recommend getting your tickets in advance so you can be sure to join the grooviest beer fest of the year!
