Cincinnati, OH - 5th Annual Cincy Winter Beerfest
“The long awaited but always satisfying OFFICIAL BEER LIST of the 2011 Columbus Beerfest is here! Let's be honest. We went crazy. There will be over 210 craft beers on the Festival's Main Floor and another 15 rare beers in the Connoisseurs Tasting Reception each night. 225 delicous beers! As always, plot your path wisely. The more exclusive beers on the Main Festival's Main Floor will tap at 6:30. Depending on their popularity they may not be available for the Grand Tasting Session (but many will) that begins at 7:30pm each night but there certainly hundreds of others to enjoy. He or She Who Drinks First, Drinks Best so step up to the VIP tickets or Connoisseur Tickets while they last!”
