The craft beer trade is booming in the Volunteer State and it’s time to celebrate Tennessee brewed beer! The Tennessee State Fair and the members of the Tennessee Craft Brewers Guild invite you to the inaugural Taste of Tennessee Craft Brewers Festival from 7 – 11pm on Friday, September 6, 2013. The festival will take place on the infield of the Fairgrounds Speedway and showcase beer brewed from all over the state of Tennessee, feature local live music, and include a selection of Nashville’s famous gourmet food trucks.

Come out and support Tennessee craft brewers and enjoy the sights and sounds of the Fair with one ticket! With more than 18 breweries from across Tennessee, festival attendees will have a unique opportunity to taste over 55 Tennessee-brewed beers. The festival is open to beer tasters of all experience levels, from the serious to the casual. The Tennessee State Fair offers only two suggestions: 1) bring your friends and 2) come thirsty.

The $40 cost of admission includes admission to the Fair, a souvenir tasting glass and unlimited beer for the duration of the event. Admission for designated drivers is $15 and includes complimentary N/A drinks. The festival is only open to people aged 21 and over.  $75 VIP tickets allow 100 guests access an hour earlier than the public, as well as the chance to sample some special beers and talk with the brewers.
