Great Nebraska Beerfest Set for Aug. 26th

The Great Nebraska Beerfest (www.greatnebraskabeerfest.com) is using its platform of the region’s premier beerfest to help others throughout the world. Over 90+ breweries will come together on Saturday, August 26th to showcase their craft beers all while helping to cure blindness globally.

This year’s beerfest will help fund outreach planned in Ethiopia later this year. The hope is to restore sight to over 1,000+ patients in a week’s time.

The Great Nebraska Beerfest puts the spotlight on Nebraska and regional breweries with many of the actual brewers and owners on hand to help sample their selections. Now in its 9th year, The Great Nebraska Beerfest is known for its short lines, shade, seamless organization at Werner Park and huge selection of beers, making it a not to miss event for beer drinkers of all levels. Beer connoisseurs will appreciate the complexity and rareness of the beers on hand and those looking to get into craft beers will have ample selections to choose from in helping to identify their pallet preferences.

Each paid admission to the event (accompanied with a valid ID that proves a minimum age of 21 years) will receive a banded bracelet and a 4 oz. tasting glass that allows attendees to receive 2 oz. pours as many times as they’d like at the craft brewery stations. General admission to the event begins at 2 p.m. Designated driver tickets are also available. Purchase tickets at www.greatnebraskabeerfest.com.
