July 11-13, 2008 | Clinton Square, Syracuse NY
The Sixth Annual Empire State Brewing and Music Festival will be held on Friday July 11th from 5:00PM until 11:00PM (gates open at 4:30), at the City of Syracuse’s festival site in Clinton Square. Listed first by USA Today as “Top Ten Beer Festivals in the America” (June 11th, 2004).
This is not your typical “beer festival”. The festival was formed to protect, promote, represent and educate the craft brewing industry and its customers. It is a means for brewers and like businesses to inexpensively market their products directly to their target market customer. This is not a drinking event, this is a tasting event. The festival also explores a wide variety of regional and national music performers, designed to complement the event.
Gate ticket price is $40. Music Lovers Tickets (does not allow sampling) are $20 and available at the gate. You must be 21 or older.
