Beer in the Woods

Beer in the Woods isn’t just about sampling local craft beers and beverages. It’s about connecting with nature, friends, and all your senses!

Please join us at LaBagh Woods in Chicago on Saturday, September 21, 1 – 5 p.m. (VIP admission at 1 p.m.) for this unique event that’s been called “the best beer festival of the season.” This is an all-ages event for drinkers and non-drinkers alike.

Held within the gorgeous groves of LaBagh Woods in Chicago, Beer in the Woods offers hours of fun for everyone:

• If you’re into craft beverages, you can enjoy tastings from a long list of local craft breweries and cideries, including special tappings and unique releases.
• If you’re into nature and nature programming, you can participate in expert-guided walks through LaBagh’s diverse landscapes and create art inspired by nature.
• If you’re into supporting local businesses, you’ll meet incredible business owners who are helping our neighborhoods thrive.

And best yet, no matter why you attend, you’ll be doing your part to make our region a better place for humans and wildlife to live:

All proceeds from Beer in the Woods directly support Friends of the Forest Preserves’ advocacy work, Conservation Corps programs, community engagement initiatives, and help to ensure that land, water, and life thrive in the forest preserves of Cook County.
