event Boone Fairgrounds Watauga

19th Annual High Country Beer Festival

Sat, Aug 29 · 3:00–7:00 PM

Beer festival featuring 40-45 breweries, live music from three bands, food vendors, and fermentation seminars.

★ Why we picked this

Forty breweries, which means the parking lot fills fast and the line for the good ones never shrinks. VIP entry gives you an hour head start on the crowd, and the educational seminars are actually worth sitting through if you want to know why somebody's Belgian tripel tastes like apricots. Live music and local food vendors round it out. Get there early.
