The 8th annual Autumn Brew Review craft beer festival will take place on Saturday, September 27, 2008 from 1 – 6 pm at the historic Grain Belt Brewery complex in Northeast Minneapolis! Beer and brewers from all across the nation will be onsite for the largest annual celebration of craft beer in Minnesota. This outdoor festival, produced by and benefiting the Minnesota Craft Brewers Guild, will feature unlimited beer samples, a commemorative tasting glass, live music all day from rockin’ bands including The High Crimes and Poison Control Center, tasty food vendors on-site, vote for your favorite beer and table display competitions, and a good time to be had by all at this beautiful historic been venue on the banks of the mighty Mississippi.

The BrewFest will feature over 40 of the world’s best breweries pouring their beers, and plenty of tasty food. The event is RAIN OR SHINE so come on out and if we get some sprinkles we’ll just hide under some tents until the sun starts shining again!

Musical entertainment from Junkfood, Crowded Streets and many other great local and regional bands will provide a perfect backdrop to a great few days. If you’d prefer to just kick back and watch some football while you’re here you can also do that in the Circuit City Sports Lounge, so there’s no need to stay at home to see the big game.
