  • Saturday, November 7, 12:00 noon – 3:00 pm or 4:00 pm – 7:00 pm – For the Love of Beer Fest

    What are you up to November 7th? Hitting the gym? Running some errands? Doing chores around the house? How about spending the day in the sun with friends drinking delicious, cold craft beer instead? Sound good? We thought so, too.

    And that is why Sam Adams is bringing you For the Love of Beer Fest, a day to spend with old (and new) friends where you can try over 50 different Sam Adams beers such as Boston 26.2, The Sphinx, Belgian Wit (Nitro), IPA (Nitro), Boston 375, and Coffee Stout (Nitro). You’ll also be able to devour some beer-paired-snacks while impressing your friends with all of the new craft beer knowledge you jammed into your brain at the Fest (not to mention the killer dance moves you picked up from the day).  The event takes place in two sessions, noon – three or 4 to 7, on the Rose Kennedy Greenway at the corner of Atlantic Avenue and Milk Street. Tickets are $35 and can be purchased online at https://www.samueladams.com/fortheloveofbeerfest

    Beyond the huge beer selection, here’s what else to look for at the fest:

    Live Music from Comanchero – Boston’s Americana Jam Band
    Food & Beer Pairings from local chefs (food for purchase)
    Inflatable Hop Slide, Interactive Games, Giveaways & more
