The Elmhurst Heritage Foundation is geared up for the return of the 7th Annual Elmhurst Craft Beer Fest on Saturday, Sept. 17 from 1 to 6 p.m. on the grounds of the Elmhurst History Museum, located at 120 E. Park Ave. in downtown Elmhurst.
After record-setting attendance last year, the Foundation is planning another memorable event. This fundraiser supports the Elmhurst History Museum’s exhibits and programs, as well as educational field trips at the Churchville One-Room Schoolhouse. The Event Co-Sponsor for the fourth time is Pints Elmhurst. Top level Platinum Sponsors include Lakeside Bank, DiCianni Graphics, Kelly Stetler Compass Real Estate, Elmhurst Bank and The Katris Law Group. In all, more than 50 local businesses are generously supporting the event.
The day will feature tastings from a selection of nearly 100 different craft beers, ciders and hard seltzers from over 45 craft and microbreweries, with an emphasis on local brewers from the Chicago area.
Live music will be performed by PettyCash and Lake Effect. Rigo’s Tacos once again serves up authentic Mexican tacos accenting the delectable beverages served.
