First Annual Midwest Winter Beer Festival


The first annual Midwest Beer Festival begins tonight at 7 p.m. with a two-hour pub crawl. The bus will leave the Radisson Hotel at 668 West Fifth St., Covington and visit five breweries throughout Covington, Newport and Cincinnati. The pub crawl for the Midwest Beer Festival includes free bus transport, but the beers will be on you. You must reserve a seat to participate in the pub crawl. Seats are limited, so get your note to event organizer Craig Johnson pronto if you want to go.

Part II of the Midwest Beer Festival is tomorrow, February 23rd. Sample beers from 75 award-winning varieties at the Radisson tomorrow from 1 to 5 p.m. and 6 to 10 p.m (or both!). Buy tickets online to save; the Midwest Beer Festival sampler costs $30 per session in advance and $35 at door. A VIP ticket for both sessions (!) is $50. All sessions promise to include "bountiful" munchies to go along with the beers. In addition to beer and food, the Midwest Beer Festival will have out other favorite thing, live music.

Park for free at the Radisson or in the public parking lot a little further along in the public parking lot on 5th street. Or better yet, have a nice friend drop you off, and pick you up after it’s over.

The proceeds of the Midwest Beer Festival benefit the Big Joe Duskin Music Education Foundation.
