2013-Beer-Fest-logo-1The Suwanee Beer Fest has become a Suwanee tradition with thousands of beer lovers waiting anxiously for its return each spring, looking forward to another exciting celebration of beer culture in downtown Suwanee’s Town Center Park. Entering its third year, the festival, presented by The Beer Growler, is set for 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. March 16 at Town Center Park where beer enthusiasts can sample more than 250+ beers from over 100 breweries, while listening to live entertainment including bands provided by stage sponsor Wild Wings of Suwanee as well as returning band Ful Kinetic, a rock & roll and blues band out of Chicago. Food vendors will also be at the festival offering a variety of fare.

New to the festival this year is Designated Driver sponsor Schiavone Law. In an effort to encourage safety, the law firm is covering the first 100 Designated Driver tickets (normally $10) to the festival. The DD tickets allow access to the festival (with no beer tasting) and include a bottle of water.

The Suwanee Beer Fest Home Brew contest returns this year and is sponsored and organized by Robert Carlton of Brew-Depot. The competition, open to all beer categories, will be judged per BJCP guidelines by certified and National Beer Judges. Winners of each category and best of show will be announced during the festival.

The VIP experience this year will be catered by Ippolito’s with a special menu that pairs well with exclusive cask beers available in the VIP tent. The sought after VIP tickets sold out this year the first day of ticket sales.

A portion of proceeds of the festival will be donated to Kingdom Kids to help grant wishes for children facing difficult circumstances. For more information about Kingdom Kids, please visit supportkingdomkids.com.
