Killington to welcome 30 brewers in new beer fest

KILLINGTON— For the last 25 years, the Vermont Brewers Association (VBA) has been running a brewers’ festival on the waterfront in Burlington. New for 2018, the brewers are getting together to create a collaboration festival outdoors in the picturesque mountain setting of Killington Resort on March 24.

This smaller, more intimate festival, will have 30 Vermont brewers for a one-day event with two sessions to choose from, 12-3 p.m. and 4-7 p.m. Festival tickets are $42, or $111 gets access to the festival plus a lift ticket to Killington Resort.

Attendees will sample specially brewed Vermont beers in varying pour sizes, meet the brewers and enjoy food trucks and fire pits at the base of the K-1 lodge at the mountain.

This is the only festival created and hosted by the brewers.

Tickets are on sale now at vtbrewfest.com. All proceeds from the event will support the Vermont Brewers Association, a nonprofit founded in 1995 to promote and strengthen the culture of craft brewing in Vermont through marketing, education, and advocacy for Vermont-made beer.
