poster for a beer fest






On Saturday, July 18th, Lagerhead Beer Fest returns to Snoqualmie for the third year. As the name suggests, the event focuses on lager-style beers, which are especially well-suited for summer. Help support Washington Wild’s Brewshed® Alliance as you enjoy a spectacular selection of beers from breweries near and far. (And wines, too.) This year’s Lagerhead Beer Fest is sure to be one of the summer’s best beer events.   

They have a novel approach to ticketing. Not just early-bird pricing, but progressive pricing in waves. The sooner you get tickets, the lower the price. At publishing time, tickets are $70. Proceeds from the event benefit Washington Wild’s Brewshed Alliance and its continuing mission to support the health of Washington’s water sources.
