Craft Beer Week at Fredericksburg Brewing Company

The Brewers Association—the national non-profit association representing the majority of today's U.S. breweries, and publishers of CraftBeer.com— and The Fredericksburg Brewing Company, the oldest brewpub in Texas, will celebrate American Craft Beer Week (ACBW) May 16-22.

Considered The Mother of All Beer Weeks, ACBW recognizes one of America’s true culinary arts and provides a platform for small and independent craft brewers to salute supporters and connect with their local communities. Thousands of today's beer enthusiasts, beginners and hard core geeks will toast craft beer, with ACBW events predicted to take place in all 50 states.

The brewmasters at the Fredericksburg Brewing Company invite you to participate in ACBW with them. Share a beer and visit with the brewers every afternoon of ACBW at 4:30pm on the benches outside the brewery on Main St. Fredericksburg. Friday, May 20th at 10am learn how the brewing process works during a brewery tour and designated meet the brewers hour. All week long featured food specials at the brewery will include items made with the brewery’s craft beer. Also, enjoy live music during the weekend of ACBW and other special events all week long including a photo contest.
