Do you love craft beer? Are you going to be in Boston this weekend? If I were, I'd go to the American Craft Beer Festival.It's taking place at the Seaport World Trade Center in Boston, and it's gonna be big. There'll be about 75 breweries represented, and they'll be offering up somewhere around 300 different brews. Plus there'll be plenty of guest speakers and events.
Everything is happening Friday June 20 and Saturday June 21. Tickets are $40. Friday's events start at 6pm and there are two sessions on Saturday at 1pm and 6pm. If you get to go, tell me all about it and how great it was.
