Craft Beer Fest Returns to Long Grove April 29

Discounted early bird tickets to one of the Chicago suburb's biggest beer events, Long Grove Craft Beer Fest, are now on sale through https://longgrove.org/festivals/craftbeerfest. This year's celebration of locally-made hand-crafted beer will feature a record 30 breweries transforming historic downtown Long Grove into Lake County's largest tented beer garden.

The annual festival is a homage to Long Grove's beer-loving history, with the curated list of breweries pouring unlimited beers for one ticket price on April 29 from noon to 4 p.m. Attendees of this one-of-a-kind beer event will experience some of Chicagoland's most renowned breweries outside under the spring sun with a vintage village as the backdrop. In addition to unlimited 3 oz. tastes and a commemorative take-home taster glass, Craft Beer Fest attendees will also enjoy live music and local food vendor options.

Long Grove's picturesque scene helps set this beer festival apart from the rest. The event gives 21 and older ticketholders the opportunity to visit any brewer station under the Craft Beer Fest tent as much as they'd like to sample freshly brewed suds and get tasting points from the pourer.

For adults who'd like to bring their children and families along for the fun, Long Grove's hometown brewery next door to the event site, Buffalo Creek Brewing, will welcome people of all ages as well as their dogs (for no admission) inside their taproom or outside in their expansive, two-acre biergarten.
