We all missed the Washington Brewers Festival at Marymoor Park, which usually happens in June each year. Alas, the last year has been anything but usual. BUT, the Washington Beer Commission triumphantly returns to Redmond on October 8th and 9th to host the Washington Beer Fresh Hop Festival.
Tickets are on sale now. Get more details at the event website.
Veterans of the Washington Brewers Festival should note one major difference between this festival and the annual “Father’s Day beer fest” at Marymoor Park. The Washington Fresh Hop Beer Festival is not all-ages. This event is 21+ on both days, a fact that will delight some beer lovers as much as it bothers some others.
According to the Commission, “The Washington Beer Fresh Hop Festival will bring the heart of the Yakima valley’s hop country to the westside of the state featuring 40 breweries with each pouring at least one fresh hop ale alongside other seasonal favorites.”
