The 9th annual East Atlanta Beer Festival returns on May 19 to shady Brownwood Park in East Atlanta Village. Doors open at 1:00pm (or noon for VIP ticket holders) for over 175 craft beers from around the world, live music, and food from local restaurants. Food trucks are being premiered in 2012. This year’s festival footprint has increased substantially, allowing more room for attendees to enjoy the park.
All proceeds from the East Atlanta Beer Festival support a variety of local organizations and initiatives, funding projects that make East Atlanta a great place to live. Grantees from the 2011 festival included the East Atlanta Farmers Market, Friends of East Atlanta Library, RecycleEAV, Burgess-Peterson Academy, and the East Atlanta Community Association.
