The annual St. Augustine Brewers Fest kicks off at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, May 4, 2024, at the Fountain of Youth. Proceeds from this event will go to several area non-profit organizations.

St. Augustine's local breweries, including Ancient City Brewing, Dog Rose Brewing Company, Bog Brewing Company, and Old Coast Ales, will be joined by more than 25 other breweries from around the state and country to offer a day of fun for craft beer enthusiasts.

Festival attendees will be given a tasting cup to use as they visit tents stationed around the Fountain of Youth, where unlimited beer samples will be available. Water filling stations will also be positioned around the Fountain of Youth's grounds, and attendees are encouraged to bring reusable water bottles to stay hydrated throughout the event.

Designated drivers can attend for $10.00, with the purchase of one general admission ticket. Tickets for this popular event go on sale on March 1, and they usually sell out. Go here for more information and tickets.
