More brewers will be added soon, but here’s what the list looks like so far:

  • 7 Seas Brewing
  • Acorn Brewing
  • Bent Bine Brewing
  • Crane Castle Brewing
  • Ghostfish Brewing
  • Gig Harbor Brewing
  • Lazy Boy Brewing
  • Narrows Brewing
  • Rainy Daze Brewing

  • Locust Cider
  • 2 Towns Cider

Gig Harbor’s own Heritage Distilling Company will also be in attendance again this year offering samples of their award-winning spirits — always a very special treat for event goers.

The LIVE Music venue includes three local artists/bands: Classic rock from RAUCOUS, country music singer, Gene Sievers, and headlining again this year is Harbor favorite, My Guilty Pleasure.

This year looks like it could be another sellout. If you don’t have tickets, go here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/13th-annual-gig-harbor-beer-festival-tickets-815717843027?aff=ebdshpsearchautocomplete
