Brewtopia: Great World Beer Festival Labor Day Weekend NYC

For the 1^st time ever, due to demand, this year's GWBF will be three days! That's right - Friday, Saturday and SUNDAY!

We've also moved the venue to the Park Avenue Armory to better suit our visitors needs.The Armory’s drill hall is a magnificent space with lacy truss-work and soaring dimensions, reminiscent of one of the great 19th Century train sheds of Europe, a perfect compliment to our traditional brews.

We look forward to seeing you
