I am happy to announce that after a two year hiatus brought upon by the COVID pandemic, that the South Bay Beer & Wine Festival is returning to Ernie Howlett Park, in Rolling Hills Estates on Sunday, May 22 from noon until 5:00 PM.

Billed as the 9th Annual South Bay Beer & Wine Festival (the 7th and 8th being the cancelled years), there will be a few changes this year, the primary ones being that only 600 tickets will be sold (half the usual number), and every ticket will be a VIP ticket. This means that everyone gets in at noon (an hour early), and the VIP tent has been removed, so the spirits (hard alcohol) are available to all. VIP parking will be available for all as there will be no shuttles this year.

While there are some changes, there is plenty that is not changing. For example:

A free souvenir tasting glass.
Unlimited tastings of craft beer, fine wines, and food from local restaurants.
Over 90 tasting booths.
Live music.
Free parking.
I have a promo code for you.

That’s right, after two long years, the least I can do is to save you a few dollars as incentive to attend what I feel is one of the best craft beer events in our area. You do not want to delay, as this is sure to sell out with only 600 tickets available.

To purchase your tickets today, please visit https://www.sbbeerwinefest.com/tickets; please be sure to insert promo code “BEERGUY22” and hit “Apply” to receive your discount.

I hope to see you there. Cheers!
