Autumn Brew Review Returns to Boom Island October 14

Each fall, thousands of craft beer lovers gather at Boom Island Park in Minneapolis for Autumn Brew Review, Minnesota’s longest-running beer festival. Described as “fall fun for adults,” attendees of the afternoon festival can enjoy live music, games, and bonfires in the golden-hour light as they sample unlimited craft beer from over 90 Minnesota breweries and brewpubs.

This year, on October 14, the festival will feature a live music stage to highlight local bands Grunge Unplugged and Pleezer. There will also be a new designated area for lawn games along the Mississippi River waterfront.
.
Autumn Brew Review is put on by the Minnesota Craft Brewers Guild, a not-for-profit organization made up of brewery and brewpub members. Like other MNCBG festivals, ABR exclusively showcases Minnesota breweries and brewpubs, often with owners or brewers present. At the festival, breweries will be grouped by region, so fans can more easily explore the variety and quality of craft beer that our state offers. Whether discovering new favorites or enjoying old ones, craft beer fans are able to enjoy fresh Minnesota beer, poured by the people who brew it.

The 2023 Autumn Brew Review festival will feature:
● Unlimited samples from 90+ Minnesota breweries, brewpubs, and cideries
● Autumn games and activities
● Live music by local bands Grunge Unplugged and Pleezer
● Bonfires
● Food trucks
.
Early-bird general admission tickets are $65, non-alcoholic tickets are $20, and VIP early-access tickets are $85. Ticket prices increase October 1. Tickets, event details, and more can be found online at mncraftbrew.org/ABR.

Founded in 2000, the Minnesota Craft Brewers Guild is a not-for-profit organization made up of more than 180 Minnesota brewery and brewpub members. The Guild showcases the talent of Minnesota’s craft brewers and promotes Minnesota’s brewing industry by sponsoring festivals and special events, including the MN Brewers Cup, the State Fair’s Brewed in Minnesota exhibit, All Pints North, and Autumn Brew Review. The Minnesota Craft Brewers Guild’s mission is to promote, protect, and grow a robust Minnesota craft brewing industry by building a healthy beer culture and community that allows for independent brewers, industry stakeholders, and craft beer fans to thrive.
