Beer Lovers! Craft Brews Festival Is Coming To Popular Illinois Zoo This Month

This Summer is going to be full of events and concert festivals all over the country - one being the Chicago Craft Brews Fest at Lincoln Park Zoo at the end of April!

If you've never watched giraffes roam free while getting tipsy, you're missing out.  I don't drink that often, but I've been to this Brew Festival with friends before just to experience it once in my life.  Everybody gets drunk, eats a bunch of pretzels and cheese, and just vibe together watching the amazing zoo animals.  It's a realllllly fun time, honestly!

Chicago Craft Brew Festival at the Lincoln Park Zoo 

If you're 21+, you get to sample from a selection of 100+ craft beers and ciders!

Who doesn't want to go drink all night at a zoo while hanging out with a bunch of wild animals?  I know, sounds dangerous - it's way more cool when you're there!

Beer tasting stations will be set up throughout the zoo’s beautiful gardens during this one-of-a-kind, after-hours experience just for adults.

This event is 21+ ONLY. 

So, no children will be around to bother you while you get your drink on!

They also have giant pretzels to munch on to fill your stomach so you can keep drinking as much as you want - SCORE!  Ticket holders will also be able to enjoy food for purchase and good music!

One of my favorite things about this event are the lawn games.  The have giant Connect 4, Tic Tac Toe, Bags, and a variety of other games to choose from!

When is the Craft Brews Fest?  Saturday, April 30th!
