Even though Arizona Beer Week is just about 2 months away, I figured I better start spreading awareness of the event now so everyone can get a jump on getting their tickets before it’s too late. Arizona Craft Beer Week is brought to you by the Arizona Craft Brewer’s Guild and they will be bringing over 250 different beer events across the state during that week. Events will include beer tastings, beer dinners, craft beer ice cream tastings, special beer releases, brewery tours and much more.
Arizona Beer Week kicks off with the 14th annual Strong Beer Festival, held at Steele Indian School Park in Phoenix on February 15th, 2014. Tickets for the event went on sale on December 1st, 2013. Strong or high alcohol content beers are the focal point of this coming years festival, a big selection of other great craft beers, specialty and unique brews along with “just-for-this-event” beers will be available. Festival-goers will receive a commemorative 4 ounce tasting glass and 15 tasting tickets for the price of admission. VIP admission will include 20 tasting tickets.
