This is one of the premier beer festivals in New England, held in Burlington on the waterfront of Lake Champlain overlooking the Adirondack Mountains. Tickets are still available for the Friday, July 21 sessions and are $40 per person. Buy tickets at www.vtbrewfest.com. Enjoy tasting unique beers from 46 brewers from Vermont, Canada, and neighboring New England states. Music is coming back this year and there is an awesome lineup of retail and food vendors to round out all that amazing beer!

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the festival hosted by the Vermont Brewers Association, a nonprofit membership organization that was founded in 1995 to promote and strengthen the culture of craft brewing in Vermont through marketing, education, and advocacy for Vermont made beer.
