This is our eighth year hosting the Brewfest and, our seventh year running the “Back to the Brewfest 5K”. We are also pleased to announce the return of the VIP Hour with special Brews that will not be available during general admission, special music selection, hors d’oeuvres prepared by The Old Courthhouse in Newport, NH, a commemorative glass, entry into a VIP only raffle, not to mention quality time with the brewers. In the center of beautiful Claremont, N.H., sample beers from more than thirty brewers from all over New England as they compete for the top prize on Saturday, Sept. 17 at the Claremont Brewfest: Battle of the Brews. Upon entrance, visitors receive a ballot and the category winners are chosen by you! This will be a fun and competitive event for New England Brewers, runners, beer and cider lovers. Once again, it is a ballot and trophy affair, but our main objective is to get people together to have fun and taste great beer while raising money for local community needs. The event will feature live entertainment. The 7th Annual Back to the Brewfest 5k is returning to beautiful downtown Claremont. Runners will be challenged with a scenic course over rolling terrain. And if you enjoy ending your run with a celebratory brew, then this race is for you! With the purchase of the Combo ticket runners will be rewarded with a huge party featuring live music, the finest craft beers in the area and delicious food!
