Phoenix Brewers Invitational returns to downtown Phoenix on Dec. 7, save $10 by getting your ticket online

The second annual Phoenix Brewers Invitational takes place next weekend – noon-6 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 7 – at Heritage Square in downtown Phoenix, and you can get $10 off your mug if you order online in advance.

The fest will feature more than 60 brewers with 100-plus beers. Admission is free, but those who want to try the beers must buy a 2013 souvenir mug, which comes with 12 tickets for 4-ounce samples.

The mugs are $35 at the door, but just $25 if you order in advance here.

There also are a limited number of $125 VIP tickets available that include a pre-fest party Dec. 6 at Phoenix Ale Brewery and VIP lounge access at the fest Dec. 7.
