Pottstown – The award-winning Pottstown Brew Fest returns to Pottstown in a new location – the Norco Fire Company on Oct. 28 for a celebration of craft beer, wine, cider, food and music.

Named the Best Outdoor Event in Montgomery County in 2015 and 2016 by Montco Happening and a Top Five Best Local 2016 Outdoor Event by Philly A-List, this year’s Pottstown Brew Fest promises to be even better.

A full listing is available on the Pottstown Brew Fest website at www.PottstownBrewFest.com.

“The Pottstown Brew Fest was one of the most successful events in the area for 2015 and 2016,” said Tim Hennessey, ofrganizer of the Pottstown Brew Fest. “For 2017, we want to build upon that and make the Brew Fest even better. We are offering more local breweries, more music, more food choices, and better parking with the new location.”

The Pottstown Brew Fest benefits the Kyle’s Quillows and the Norco Fire Company.
