The Inland Empire Brewers Guild is making history by kicking off the first ever IE Beer Week with a bang! Starting off with a guild-wide collaboration beer, another great beer festival, and rounding off with events all over the IE celebrating local craft beer and recognizing some of our best breweries.

The 2nd IE Beer Festival is returning to the Riverside Airport on Sept 17th. The event features 40 breweries with 5 food trucks. Featured local breweries are Last Name Brewing, Wicks Brewing Company, Skyland Ale Works, Escape Craft Brewery, Packinghouse Brewing Company, I&I Brewing, Sons of Liberty Aleworks, and many more. Two sessions available; the VIP $45 gets you 12pm-4pm unlimited tastings with commemorative VIP glassware, General Admission will run $35 with unlimited pours from 1pm-4pm.

The IE Brewers Guild is also planning another IE first with a collaboration beer. Escape Craft Brewery will be the gathering place for the member breweries to throw down and come up with 1 great beer that represents the best of what the Inland Empire has to offer.

All of this; the beer festival, the collaboration beer, is all to kick off the very first Inland Empire Beer Week. Breweries and restaurants throughout the Inland Empire will be featuring their tried and true beers, alongside experimental brews celebrating barrel-aged beers, unique hops, and yet to be announced whales.
