(That forecast will be a relief to organizers, who had to postpone the fest back in June, owing to inclement weather.) Saturday’s fest takes place at Fort Gibraltar, and will feature a great many Manitoba brewers (as well as producers of cider, wine and more) pouring more than 70 products in total.
Among local brewers slinging lagers and ales are One Great City, Kilter, Trans Canada, Nonsuch, Brazen Hall, Good Neighbour and Brandon’s Black Wheat, as well as cider from Winkler’s Dead Horse, wine and more from Shrugging Doctor, spirits from Capital K and non-alcoholic options from the Sobr Market. Tickets for each of the two time slots at the Winnipeg Beer Festival (5-7 p.m.
and 7:30-9:30 p.m.) are $50 plus taxes and include all samples.
