We will be pouring five seasonal beers and three ciders for your enjoyment. Stop by to sample, meet the homebrewers and inquire about how you can start home-brewing or getting involved with the Club!

” Bay Fest is a celebration of Long Island craft beer, the people who brew it and the community that surrounds it. Since we began making beers 7 years ago at Great South Bay Brewery, it’s been a dream of ours to host an annual festival at our brewery that brings together the close knit family of local brewers both professional and amateur for a day of great beers with great friends. It’s safe to say that we all got into this business for the love of beer, and nothing brings out the true meaning of craft beer then sharing it with others. With that being said, we want to invite you, the craft beer drinker, to join us for our Seventh Annual Bay Fest on June 1st, 2019 at Great South Bay Brewery in Bay Shore to share this day with us. In addition to the incredible beers being served there will also be great food provided by food trucks, local vendors, games, and much, much more! ” –Eventbrite (Link Below)
