Accompanied by PA’s leading brewers of Lagers, Bocks and Weizens, and sample a diverse array of imports fromGermany, this fest is any beer lover’s dream.

Philly Roller Derby will be judging the ‘Liter Lift’ contest as well as participating in some old-fashioned arm wrestling. Witness our feats of strength, then enjoy live entertainment on two stages including Berlin-style ‘Beerlesque’, the soulful bluegrass music of The Keystone Mountain Boys, and the rollicking oompah-funk of Polkadelphia,

Tickets sell out every year, so don’t miss your chance to experience your new favorite beer event!
