Celebrating the big flavors of small-batch brewing! Sample the finest nano- and micro-breweries in northern Vermont and New Hampshire for a taste of autumn. This outdoor event features great beer, food, and music. PLUS, you'll be able to explore the Museum's galleries and take in a planetarium show. Bears and brews … what could be better?
