The sixth annual Real, Wild & Woody Indoor Beer Festival, featuring more than 350 craft beers, takes place 2-6 p.m. Saturday, July 27, at the Phoenix Convention Center in downtown Phoenix.
The 21-and-over event showcases cask (real) beers, Brettanomyces yeast (wild) beers, and barrel-aged (woody) beers.
The event is one of the Valley’s two premier beer festivals organized by the Arizona Craft Brewers Guild. The other is the Arizona Strong Beer Festival in February.
RW&W general admission tickets, which include 20 beer samples and small food bites, are $60 in advance or $80 day-of.
For the first time, the festival also is offering VIP tickets for $80 in advance or $100 at the door that include early admission at 1 p.m. You can add a three-taco meal for an additional $20.
