The Macon Beer Fest is only two days away, do you have your tickets yet? The event sold out last year, so there may not be tickets available the day-of. If you haven't purchased tickets yet, you can buy them online here or from the Grand Opera House.
If this is your first year at the Macon Beer Festival, it's possibly unlike any festival you've attended before. The Rotary Club of Downtown Macon and Mainstreet Macon pair together with local business for a one-of-a-kind pub crawl meets beer festival. You'll receive a map and tasting tickets for each location. Your beer destinations are spread across downtown Macon and you'll get to sample craft beers from Georgia and beyond at each location. You may even discover a cool new bar or interesting restaurant along the way! One thing is for sure, you won't have to travel far for a good post-festival meal. You could even check out The Dirty Guv'nahs for Weaver's Weekend at the Crazy Bull after the festival!
What's new this year? More beer! This year's festival will see 13 different stations sponsored by local businesses. In addition to the lineup from last year, Ocmulgee Traders, Margaritas, Twang and Crazy Bull will be sponsoring your beer consumption destinations. A full list of venues can be found here.
In case you're feeling a bit guilty for spending your Saturday day-drinking around downtown Macon, don't worry. The Macon Beer Fest is for a good cause! Proceeds go to Pints for Prostates, a non-profit dedicated to raising awareness of prostate cancer through the universal language of Beer. There will even be free PSA tests at The Rotary venue, just in case you need a little liquid encouragement to get tested. It should be noted that they will only be testing your blood for PSA and not BAC.
Come on out Saturday and have a great time with the rest of Macon's beer-drinking elite!
