Thousands of beers. Hundreds of the nation’s best brewers. And a one-of-a-kind opportunity to sample some of the most sought-after brews available anywhere in the nation. It’s the 15th annual Arizona Strong Beer Festival™, and it’s all going down this Valentine’s Day.
From 1 – 5 pm Saturday, Feb. 14th, craft beer connoisseurs from across Arizona and beyond will be treated to the ultimate beer experience when the 15th Annual Arizona Strong Beer Festival™, presented by the Arizona Craft Brewers Guild, makes its return to Steele Indian School Park. This year’s event promises something special for beer “lovers” of all types, with surprises galore on tap in addition to more than 400 craft beers from 120 of America’s most notable breweries.
VIP, General Admission and Designated Driver tickets are on sale now, and this year’s festivities offer some enhanced opportunities for guests. VIP tickets now include, 30 minutes extra time(90 minutes total), 47 tasting tickets (more than double from last year), and with the event falling on Valentine’s Day, a special Lover’s Lounge will be onsite for those whose love for another rivals their love for craft beer. Want to renew vows? Here’s your chance to do so in an unconventional, yet memorable manner. Want to tie the knot? Why wait, when the keg’s already been tapped? This year’s Strong Beer Festival also promises the return of the “Text for Tappings” feature, where guests can simply text STRONG BEER to 555888 to be among the first to receive alerts about special tappings taking place during the festival.
Whether it’s time to stuff some stockings or simply time to stray away from the standard “dinner and a movie” Valentine’s Day routine, Strong Beer Festival tickets deliver, and then some. The event has sold out for 2 years and counting, though, so be sure to grab some now, before they’re all tapped out.
