Thirsty Thursday | Great Northern Beer Festival

So I thought a change of pace for the 4^th of July weekend with Thirsty Thursday could be fun featuring the Great Northern Beer Festival we attended! Also named one of the top 10 Beer Festivals in the country to attend via Flipkey by Trip Advisor... quite an honor too. Taking place the second Saturday of June in Eagle River Wisconsin at Hi-Pines Campground the festival celebrated it’s 10^th Anniversary.

We love this festival not only because it takes place in our home town or that because we are friends with the organizers or because I am normally pouring delicious Sprecher Brewery products… NO it’s just a damn good beer fest in the Northwoods! One of the reasons why it is such a great festival is because there is much care put into which breweries attend (mostly Wisconsin and Midwest based) and that they have a knowledgeable brewery representative present to help educate the fine drinkers of said beer fest brews.

Hey look I even make an appearance pouring my Sprecher!

If you happen to be in Eagle River next June please check out the Great Northern Beer Festival and be sure be responsible and book your campsite at Hi-Pines in advance since sites fill up fast. Maybe we will see you there next year… cheers!
