Eighth Connecticut Brewers Guild Brewfest to be Held at Ski Sundown

New Hartford, CT — Ski Sundown hosts its eighth Brewers Fest at the mountain on Saturday, June 21, 2014 from 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm.

“We are always excited about doing events at Ski Sundown. Not only is it one of the best brewfests of the year, but its picturesque location is second to none and makes for a great day, said Curt Cameron, President of the Connecticut Brewers Guild and President of Thomas Hooker Brewing Company, located in Bloomfield.

This summer’s tasting experience will include over thirty-five of the “Who’s Who” in micro breweries and brewpubs from Connecticut and beyond. Flyin’ Blind will provide musical entertainment and a selection of grill foods and snacks by The Meat House of Avon will be available for purchase.

“The Brewers Guild Brewfest at Ski Sundown offers a great opportunity to sample a variety of local beers and a chance to meet some of the folks who lovingly craft them. Last year’s fests were a great time for all, and we’re eager to be there again this year and talk with the state’s craft beer enthusiasts at the CT Beer Trail table,” said Bryon Turner, Founder of the CT Beer Trail.

Tickets may be purchased online at skisundown.com for $25 in advance and $30 at the door. You must be 21 or older to attend and a photo I.D. is required. Designated driver tickets are available for $20. The event will be held rain or shine and ample, free parking is available. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Connecticut Brewer’s Guild, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting the craft beer industry in Connecticut.
