You Need to Be At #YEGBeerfest This Year – Here’s Why!

Community. Nothing brings people together like good food and beverage and #YEGBeerfest is about coming together – having fun together – celebrating Edmonton and Alberta together! We certainly are excited to have the chance to gather together once again as a craft beverage community at this year’s edition of the Edmonton Craft Beer Festival returning to the Edmonton EXPO Centre on June 3rd & 4th. 

We’ve got lots & lots of things to look forward to this year, but here are Top 5 Favourites:

1. Eat, Drink & Be Merry!   In addition to the over 200 breweries, distilleries, cideries, meaderies and RTD (ready to drink beverages) you can sample at the festival, you’ll also be able to taste delicious food from over 30 fantastic local pubs, restaurants, and eateries. Yummy is spelled B-E-E-R-F-E-S-T!
2. Yummy, May I Introduce You to Yummy! – The ever-popular RAHR Malting Brew Master Seminars and the Alberta Pork Cooking with Beer Seminars are back. The Brew Master Seminars allow you to hear the stories behind the brewers, the breweries, and the beers – all while sampling some of their amazing libations. While at the Cooking with Beer Seminars you’ll learn how to pair beer with food and also use beer as an ingredient in your own recipes…oh and you get to enjoy the nosh too! Both free for VIPs.
3. Never Miss A Beat! Nothing goes better with food and drink than music – and Beerfest will keep the vibe going in every corner of the festival. With the SYC Brewing, Sled Island and Sherlock Holmes music lounges bumping the whole weekend – you can move like you mean it!
4. We Rise By Lifting Others – One of the biggest things we have missed by not being able to do our events is how we support our Charities of Choice. This year, we’ll once again be supporting WIN House – by coming out to the event, you’ll be helping make great things happen for these amazing organizations.  ABF has donated tickets to help with fundraising to over 70 Alberta charities and have helped raise over $300,000 for our charities of choice.
5. Unforgettable Experiences That Can Change You – Festivals are where unforgettable moments can happen.  The atmosphere, everyone having a great time, the chance for shared experiences with friends that can bond you together for life. Beerfest can open your mind to new tastes and new experiences. Maybe you’ll find a new favourite food or drink, find a new love, or take a new path that will lead to the adventure of a lifetime. Remember, great things happen at Beerfest!

#YEGBeerfest is Edmonton’s premier beer, spirit and food festival – and this year’s version is shaping up to be the best year ever!
