Events, the Wisconsin Beer Lovers Festival is the premier Midwestern beer festival, which attracts beer enthusiasts from around the country. The event serves as a fund-raiser for the Wisconsin Brewers Guild, a nonprofit dedicated to promote and maintain standards of excellence in Wisconsin’s brewing industry.

Last year, nearly 2,000 connoisseurs attended the event to sample the craft beer, meet with Wisconsin brewers and enjoy food and entertainment.

As was the case last year, this year the number of tickets to the event is capped at 2,000 so guests have room to mingle with the brewers and take their time to sample the wide variety of beer and food, according to Ann Deuser, executive director of Welcome to Glendale, Glendale’s Convention and Visitors Bureau. She added that despite the cold temperatures, ticket sales were strong and urged those interested in attending to purchase their tickets soon due to the event’s popularity and limited number of tickets sold.

The event is selling tickets at various levels, from the VIP experience at $80 per person, which includes a VIP only area with food pairings and an hour of early entry, to a Food Lover’s ticket, at $25 per person, which includes access to unlimited food sampling, but not including unlimited beer sampling. Rounding out the levels are a Beer Enthusiast ticket at $55 per person, featuring early access to the event, and a General Admission ticket for $45 per person.

All ticket levels include unlimited beer and food sampling, except the Food Lover’s ticket, which doesn’t include unlimited beer sampling.
