Beer Fest

Cerveza. Brewski. Libation. Whatever you call beer, there's no denying CL loves it—and we know you do too! Join us in celebrating your favorite brews at an indoor summertime festival dedicated to the hoppy goodness Tampa Bay can't seem to get enough of. Say hello to Creative Loafing's Beer Fest 2015!
