    Founder's Harvest Party

    This Harvest Party is going to feel more like a private party rather than a beer festival. Founder's Brewing Co. is throwing their party on Oct. 17th, starting at 11 am, and it's all in celebration of their seasonal release of "Harvest Ale". But, you can't get your tickets in advance, you can ONLY get them at the door... so it's first come first serve. Tickets are only ten bucks, though!

    Zombie Beerfest

    This festival has all the appeal of drinking craft beer, with the added fun bonus of dressing up like a zombie! This is definitely for you if you're a Walking Dead fan, lol! Get your undead self out to Grand Rapids on Oct. 17th and get your cold brew on from 4-8 pm. This fest also offers you two options when it comes to tickets; $39 for general admin or $49 for VIP.
