Strong Beer Festival – AZ Beer Week

Arizona Beer Week kicks off with the 11th Annual Arizona Strong Beer Festival, held at Steele Indian School Park in Phoenix on February 19th, 2011.

Although strong beers (those with high alcohol content) are the focus at the festival, a huge variety of craft beers – as well as specialty styles and unique, just-for-this-event brews – are made available to festival-goers, who will receive a commemorative four-ounce tasting glass and 15 tasting tickets for the price of admission.

And because food and beer just naturally go together, there will be plenty of top-notch food vendors on hand, serving up tasty eats that wash down well with frosty suds. Live music will keep the atmosphere rockin’.

Presented by The Arizona Craft Brewers Guild.
