Great AZ Beer Festival, Tempe

No one goes thirsty at The Great Arizona Beer Festival, thanks to the sheer quantity of beer that abounds across the festival grounds. This year, more than 50 breweries from across Arizona, the U.S., and the Milky Way come together to share 200+ craft beers. Festival-goers can sample local wares like the Arizona honey wheat from Phoenix-based Old World Brewery or the Odelay Mexican Chocolate Ale from Four Peaks Brewery. In the midst of all this beer-sipping is live entertainment from Big Nick & The Gila Monsters, as well as snacks from food vendors. The festival also doubles as a fund-raising event for local charity Sun Sounds of Arizona, a non-profit radio reading service that helps Arizonans with print disabilities.
