Brews By The Bay Craft Beer Festival

09/10/2016 @ 11:30 am - 8:00 pm


Hosted by the Delaware Brewers Guild and the Garden State Craft Brewers Guild, Brews By The Bay is a two-state day-long celebration of great craft beer and offers samples from 40+ breweries hailing from New Jersey and Delaware. Start with Jersey craft beer from 11:30am to 3:30pm on the lawn at the Cape May Ferry Terminal, jump on the ferry, and head to Delaware’s festival kicking off at 4pm on the lawn at the Lewes Ferry Terminal.

New Jersey’s rules with the ABC are a bit tricky, so prepare thyself to consume up to fifteen, 4-ounce pours (the equivalent to a large growler). Most breweries offer high ABV brews and limited/small batches and there’s plenty to go around. Should you choose to consume more, additional tickets are available for purchase.

Once you step foot in Delaware – unlimited samples flow all evening! You will be able to enjoy one off brews, limited releases and award-winning ales from Delaware’s finest craft breweries.

Featuring:
Souvenir glass included with ticket
Amazing eats from food trucks and local restaurants available for purchase
Yard games
Live music
Dogs allowed!
Family friendly
Beautiful views of the Delaware Bay
Designated Drivers only $5.00

Remember to B.Y.O.C. (bring your own chair), lather on that sunblock, valid I.D. and have fun with hundreds of other craft beer lovers– Rain or Shine! Must be 21+ to drink.

Tickets will be on sale the day of the event at the gate. Full Experience, Delaware Only and New Jersey Only will be $5 more at the door.

The Garden State and Delaware Craft Brewers Guilds are 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organizations that exist to unify the New Jersey and Delaware brewing communities. Our mission is to protect, promote, represent, and educate our members and customers.
