Thirsty visitors flock to Naperville's Winter Ale Fest

More than 60 beer brewers brought their goods for consumption to Naperville's Frontier Park Saturday afternoon during the 2015 Winter Ale Fest sponsored by the Naperville Parks Foundation.

Hundreds of thirsty visitors poured into the park to taste what was pouring out of the scores of kegs brought by the craft brewers from across the country.

This was the festival's second year. A portion of the proceeds helps the park district buy open space.
