Holiday Ale Festival

Holiday Ale Festival fans, for those who have seen that a "winter brew fest" is taking place at the square, please know that is NOT the Holiday Ale Festival. Our festival has always been a labor of love and we’ve been working hard to bring it back, but much has changed since the last fest was held in 2019. We considered a scaled-down version at Pioneer Courthouse Square, but if people are hesitant to visit downtown and park or walk after dark to attend the event, that makes it tough to invest the time and funds and hope it turns out for the best. We are determined to hold the fest next year in some way, shape or form. In the meantime, please continue to support your local breweries and cideries, they need you now as much as ever, if not more. Best wishes from the HAF Staff.

Holiday Ale fans, we are working on the fest and are hopeful that we can hold the event this year and what that will look like. It would be great to see all of you with a beer in your hand under the tents, we will post details when they are available. In the mean time, for the local fans, we are holding a small event next weekend, the Sip of Spring on June 17th from noon - 6pm. Come by John's Marketplace Powell and try one of the 18 refreshing beer or some cider, grab a bite at one of the onsite food carts and maybe bump into some friends of the fest you do not know yet. Just like the Holiday Ale, this event is rain or shine! sipofspring.com for details.
