    What better way to celebrate all things local and Louisville than with a brewfest, right? While we may not have an Oktoberfest in town we do have Louisville Brewfest, and on October 17th from 4 p.m. - 10 p.m. Louisville Slugger Field will transformed into a beer lovers paradise. 

    This Louisville celebration of local, independent brewers, independent businesses, and independent thinkers works to shelve uniformity and celebrate our uniqueness.

    $5 admission includes a souvenir cup. 

    Drink/food tickets are $1 each. Beer (12oz) or Wine (4-5oz) is 4 tickets each (samples are 1 ticket each), Bourbon (sample size, 1/2 ounce) is 1 ticket, soft drinks are 2 tickets. Food and wine prices will vary. Click here for a full menu of items and prices or here for an event map.
