Winter beer festivals on tap for WV

Don’t let the cold weather deter you from attending one of West Virginia’s winter beer festivals this season. These indoor festivals provides a nice warm atmosphere to complement the tasty cold craft beers.

On December 17, the Winter Beer Fest at Snowshoe Mountain Resort takes place inside, up on the mountain. On February 11, Cabin Fever Craft Beer Fest takes advantage of the indoor event space at Mylan Park in Morgantown.

Winter seasonal beers from state breweries will be on tap at these festivals — beers you won’t see at spring, summer, and fall festivals. It’s a good chance to check out cold weather beers from breweries all across the state. Of course, a selection of many year-round and other specialty brews will also be poured.

Check our Winter Festivals page to find updates on winter beer events in West Virginia.
