This event was one of the first and continues to be one of the best local beer tasting events. This will be the 10th anniversary of the Brewers Bazaar and you need to be onboard the Avalon Riverboat overlooking the beautiful St. Croix River in historic downtown Stillwater on Saturday, May 21st.

Your ticket gets you 4 hours to sample some of the best regional beers poured directly from the brewers. In addition, you get a commemorative pilsner glass, a brat and delicious cheese by the Bass Lake Cheese Factory. This event is presented by the members of the Stillwater Sunrise Rotary Club. All the proceeds help support our Club’s many service projects. 

Talk to anyone that has attended this event in the previous 9 years and they will tell you this is one of the best parties of the year. T
