A new event from the Beervana Fest team. NOIPA Fest: is an exploration and celebration of some of the 80-plus other delicious craft beer styles. A note from the event producers says: “Everybody loves IPAs! When we began Beervana Fest way back in 2008, our mission was to bring craft beer front and center into the spotlight and help to enlighten the community as to what a big world Craft Beer was and could be … we also felt that the market has a need to learn about the many beautiful and exciting classic styles that are really not getting much exposure in the current world.” Skipping IPAs, the goal is to “get the world excited and invigorated about” Goses, Milds, Kölsch, Gruits, Porters, Barley Wines, Saisons, Dubbels, the many types of Bocks, Wee Heavys and all the Pilsner varieties among other styles. NOIPA FEST will explore and celebrate all of the other delicious and diverse styles of craft beer and bring them together. Ticket includes tasting glass, 2 oz. pours of some of the most delicious and diverse beers in the world.
