The Village of Baytowne Wharf welcomes beer lovers to the Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort for a special craft beer tasting, the only one of it’s kind in the area.
The second annual Baytowne Wharf Beer Festival is set to be held October 16-17.
Event activities begin Friday night and will be spread throughout the Village, including a Beer Seminar and a Baytowne Beer Tour.
Saturday, more than 70 different types of beer will be available for participants to taste. Sample a variety of textures, aromas and appearances while enjoying live background music.
“The Baytowne Wharf Beer Festival is a unique event that provides participants the opportunity to taste and experience specialty beers as they stroll the streets of the Village,” said Lanier Motes events manager for the Baytowne Wharf Neighborhood Association. “Brewery representatives will be available to answer questions and explain about the many types of beer at the festival.”
More than 40 breweries will be pouring specialty, seasonal and not yet released beers for you to sample. The craft tasting will be from 2-7pm on Saturday.
If you find a beer you like, you don’t have to look far to purchase more. The Retail Tent, located at Lumpy’s Wine Bar, will have special discounted festival pricing for participants to take advantage of.
“The Beer Festival exceeded our expectations last year and we are looking forward to this year’s festival,” said Mike Lea, proprietor of Lumpy’s Wine Bar. “There will be a wide variety of beer available and great prices and values.”
