ABOUT:
The Portland Fruit Beer Festival returns bigger and badder in 2012 (June 9th and 10th) after unprecedented success in it’s first year outside ofBurnside Brewing Co. The only festival of it’s kind the PFBF celebrates the wonderful, creative and uniquely crafted fruit beers of the Pacific NW and beyond. Once fruit beers were a staple of every brewery but when quality product became harder and harder to obtain at cheap pricesmany breweries stopped making them or turned to cheap extract flavorings which in turn helped to give fruit beers a bad name in the craft beer community.
The Portland Fruit Beer Festival is bringing back the tradition with an outstanding lineup of the best fruit beers the world has to offer, many of them brewed specifically for this festival by local brewers. 25 different breweries are sending entries into this years festival with another 20-30 special rare one-off kegs for our rotating taps that will change throughout the festival.
