Beer festival brings craft brews to Huntington

A festival is bringing craft beer enthusiasts together next month, making Huntington the epicenter of Long Island’s beer celebrations.

At the Long Island Gold Coast Beer Festival, Huntington residents will be able to sample over a dozen local craft beers. The second iteration of the beer festival will benefit General Needs Ltd., a local non-profit geared towards helping military veterans.

Guests will enjoy unlimited samplings of the best beers across Long Island while meeting the brewers who crafted each offering. In total, 12 popular breweries have been booked to attend the event, offering a wide variety of craft beers and ciders for registered guests to try.

The festival will take place outdoors for general admission guests, while VIP ticketholders will have access to an indoor section. Business card printing is a fine way for brewers to connect with beer enthusiasts and leave a lasting impression at such festivals.

All ticketholders will have access to live music, various food trucks, and samples enjoyed from a commemorative beer drinking glass. VIP ticketholders will gain access to the festival an hour before general admission is welcomed in, ensuring a unique experience.

Six Harbors Brewing Company will host the festival on Saturday, June 8, from noon to 4:00 PM. General admission tickets start at $77 per guest and can be purchased online.
