1st Session: 1-4pm | 2nd Session: 5-8pm
Where: Millenium Park, Chicago, IL

As summer winds down and beer festivals begin to head indoors, Chicagoans can take advantage of one of the last outdoor festivals of the season. Chicago will play host to Samuel Adams’ first ever “For the Love of Beer Fest” which will take place Sept. 12th in Millennium Park.

The festival will feature over 50 different Samuel Adam’s beers including well-known favorites, seasonal beers and some that have never been poured in Chicago before. Tickets are $45 each and will include 20 tickets good for a 3 oz pour each. To purchase tickets visit the website: https://www.samueladams.com/fortheloveofbeerfest.

There are two different tasting sessions. The early one will go from 1-4pm with the second one taking place from 5-8pm. Besides the beer, there will be food, music and interactive games for festival-goers to enjoy.

What should attract beer lovers to this fest is that it’s more than just Boston Lager. Six beers are being poured that have never been poured in Chicago. They are: Boston 26.2, The Sphinx, Belgian Wit (Nitro), Boston 375 and Coffee Stout (Nitro).
