Get ready, Burleson! The highly anticipated BTX Brewfest is back for its fourth year, and it promises to be better than ever. Mark your calendars for October 5, 2024, from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m., (VIP gets in early at 2 p.m.), and head over to 141 W. Renfro Street for an unforgettable afternoon of craft beer, live music, and local flavor.

BTX Brewfest has come a long way since its inception. What started as a passion project by three friends—Melissa, Brooke, and Sara—has now grown into one of the region’s most popular beer festivals. Last year’s event saw over 5,000 attendees, a testament to the festival’s ever-growing appeal. This year, the festival is poised to draw even more beer lovers and festival-goers.

With 20 breweries showcasing their finest brews, beer enthusiasts will have a chance to sample over 50 different types of beer. From non-alcoholic beers and hoppy IPAs to rich stouts and refreshing lagers, there’s something for every palate. But that’s not all—this year, BTX Brewfest is introducing a delightful twist for those who prefer a different kind of drink. Wintergrass Vineyard and Winery will be on hand, offering a selection of fine wines for those who might not be as inclined towards beer.

The festival will also feature an impressive lineup of live music. Get ready to groove to the tunes of The Enablers, The Alternatives, and King George, each bringing their own unique sound to the stage. With such an eclectic mix of bands, there will be plenty of opportunities to dance and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere.

For those looking to make the most of their Brewfest experience, VIP tickets are available. VIPs get the exclusive benefit of entering the festival an hour early, providing a unique opportunity to taste all the beers before the general crowd arrives. It’s the perfect way to ensure you don’t miss out on any of your favorites.

And while BTX Brewfest is all about indulging in great beer and enjoying fantastic music, it also holds a special place in its heart for giving back. This year’s event continues its tradition of supporting local causes by partnering with the Center for ASD, a local charity dedicated to providing resources and support for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

So gather your friends, put on your favorite festival gear, and join us at BTX Brewfest for a day of food, fun, and festivities. Whether you’re a beer aficionado, a wine lover, or simply someone looking for a great time, this year’s festival has something for everyone. Don’t miss out on what promises to be an extraordinary celebration. Cheers to good times and great causes!
