Real Wild & Woodsy beer festival moves from Valley to Flagstaff on Saturday

Real Wild & Woodsy, the Arizona Craft Brewers Guild’s summer beer festival that’s bounced around from Tempe to Phoenix to Mesa in its seven years, will take place 1-5 p.m. Saturday at yet another new venue – at a forested park at the Pioneer Museum in Flagstaff.

What: The festival was created to showcase cask (real) beers, Brettanomyces yeast (wild) beers, and barrel-aged (woodsy, originally woody) beers. Two dozen Arizona breweries, as well as a few out-of-state ones, will participate this year.

  • Tickets are $34.99 for general admission, good for 24 3-ounce samples, or $54.99 for VIP, which also includes early entry at noon.

Parking info: Parking will be available for VIP ticket holders, but general admission ticket holders are asked to use public transportation, ride-sharing, or bicycling.

  • The museum is located 2.1 miles north of downtown Flagstaff.
