What is OktoBEER Fest?
Bellefonte Brewing Co. is joining forces with the Trauma Survivors Foundation and 302 Phalanx Foundation to give people the opportunity to gather with friends and drink beer for a good cause. Brews from eight local breweries will be featured. The event will also host a variety of local food trucks and vendors from local businesses, plus giveaways, 50/50 raffles and games.
A portion of the proceeds from OktoBEER Fest will support the Hospital Heroes Food Drive, which has provided over 15,000 meals to healthcare workers and first responders over the course of the pandemic, while also supporting struggling restaurants.
What breweries and food trucks will be there?
The lineup of breweries includes: Evolution Craft Brewing Company, Fordham and Dominion Brewing, Blue Earl Brewing Company, Big Oyster Brewery, Liquid Alchemy and more. For food, cuisines will range from Italian to Asian fusion with trucks like Ristorante Attilio, Julian’s Mac & Cheese, KOI on the go, Crazy Rick’s Food Truck and Adams’ Ribs & Grille.
