Grovetoberfest is back this Saturday

Be part of the thousands who will descend on Coconut Grove this weekend. It's a party you will want to be a part of. The fall/winter season begins with Grovetoberfest.

Credited for fueling the craft beer revolution in South Florida, Grovetoberfest will once again serve over 300 unlimited beer samplings from around the country and around the world. Beer lovers know that this is the place to go to try new releases, tap into old favorites and take part in Timed Tappings, which offers unprecedented access to specialty brews.

The Milam’s Kitchen Lab has become a culinary tradition at this festival, showcasing award-winning, South Florida chefs eager to share their fusion, beer pairing and cooking tips. The Bougainvillea's Live Music Stage will feature South Florida favorites, and food vendors will be on hand selling everything from burgers to beer cupcakes.

VIP Ticket holders enjoy access at 2:30 pm and are treated to limited release beers available only at the Boulevard Brewing VIP Experience.
