2012 Charlotte Craft Beer Week March 16th-25th

Description

Clear your calendar because the 3rd Annual Charlotte Craft Beer week is taking the Queen City by storm! It all starts March 16th with the Brawley’s Beverage Black & Blue Show at the Visulite Theater and continues through March 25th.

Tap takeovers, beer dinners and unique, hand-picked events will be happening in and around Charlotte for all 10 exciting days. Favorite events like Common Market Southend’s Freak Fest (March 22nd) and Beast of the East vs. Best of the West (March 24th) will be returning with all new highlights.

Charlotte Craft Beer Week is the brainchild of Charlotte Beer Club and is a grassroots celebration of the best beers from across the globe. CCBW has something for everyone from beer experts to novices, and even non-beer drinkers.
