Beer Festival: Tickets are on sale for the Maine and New Hampshire Brewers Festival (ME/NH)

Happy New (Brewfest) Year!

Our planning for this November’s Seventeenth Annual Maine Brewers Festival, and Second Annual New Hampshire Brewers Festival is well underway, and you can buy tickets now at LearnYourBeer.com. We sell out every year, so get ’em while you can!

As always, we’re celebrating Maine’s best brewers on the first weekend in November, at the Portland Expo, with the Brewers Dinner on Friday the 5th, and the full Festival on Saturday the 6th.

The New Hampshire Brewers Festival at the Radisson Manchester features brewers from New Hampshire, Maine, and several other states (and maybe Canada!) It is again on the second weekend in November, with a Brewers Dinner event on Friday, 12 November, and the full festival on Saturday the 13th. The Learn Your Beer seminars were a lot of fun last year, and we’ll expand those this year.

Here are a few other highlights to remind you about…

• We have two session times at each brewfest: Happy Hour from 1:30 – 5:00, and the Evening Session 6:30 – 10:00. This allows you plenty of time for fun in Portland and Manchester, both pre- and post-brewfest.
• We will have new brewers at both the Maine and New Hampshire brewfests.
• We’ll expand New Hampshire’s “Learn Your Beer” features, and we’re working to add that fun at the Maine Brewers Festival… stay tuned!
• There’s more news about the fun of this great Portland tradition, and this second-year New Hampshire tradition, and we’ll keep you posted!

American craft beer sales are up again (woo-hoo!), and we’re committed to making the Maine and New Hampshire Brewers Festivals a great opportunity to stay connected to your favorite craft brewers, meet some new brewers, and to host a fun event where new craft beer customers have a chance to sample America’s best beer.

Thanks for your support and we look forward to seeing you at the Maine and New Hampshire Brewers Festivals!
