Great Vegas Festival of Beer Celebrates Five Years

Tickets are now on sale for Motley Brews’ 2015 Great Vegas Beer Festival (GVFB), Nevada’s largest craft beer event, on Saturday, April 11, 2015. During the fifth annual GVFB, beer enthusiasts, brewers and culinary masterminds will join together to celebrate the lifestyle surrounding the craft beer movement in the streets of Downtown Las Vegas.
 
After a record turnout in 2014, Motley Brews will once again host GVFB near Fremont East Entertainment District, returning with more beer and vastly expanded culinary options. In addition, the festival offers enhanced programming with revamped BrewLogic educational sessions and a full afternoon of live music. The 2015 festival’s beer list will offer guests the choice of more than 300 brews from over 100 different breweries. In addition, the culinary menus, located in the signature Gastropub, will draw from the talent of more than one dozen prominent Las Vegas chefs.
 
“We’re doing more this year to evolve the festival experience beyond a traditional beer sampling,” said Brian Chapin, founder of Motley Brews. “There was a great response from guests during the debut of the Gastropub and BrewLogic at last year’s festival. We want to continue to explore the diversity of craft beer through innovative ideas to keep the festival fresh and exciting for beer lovers and novices alike.”
