Let me help you by laying out the upcoming Beer Fest for 2016. From across Canada to some drivable distances in the USA.
Buffalo, NY & Pittsburgh, PA have a great beer scenen and some cool Beer Fests. I also find in the US there are new beers us Canadians have not tried :) and they seem to have a VIP ticket where you get early tasting lol
Click on the Event to be directed to the Event, they should all link as I had no beer and 2 coffees as I organized this... If I am missing any let me know and I can add them! Happiest of Beer Festing over 2016 and don't be shy and send me a message if your going or if you see my booth there say "HI!" Cheers,
Tiffany
