Stillwater Sunrise Rotary Club - Stillwater, Minnesota

This is not just another beer festival.  This one's unique for several reasons.   One reason is its setting aboard the Avalon Riverboat.  Overlook the beautiful St. Croix River in historic downtown Stillwater on a sunny Saturday afternoon in May while enjoying delicious craft brews.  Another reason is its value.  For only $35, you get 4 hours to sample some of the best regional beers poured directly from the brewers themselves.  This year the event is scheduled to feature Lift Bridge, Surly, Summit, Brau Brothers, Flat Earth, August Schell, Big Wood Brewery, Badger Hill, Leech Lake Brewing, Bad Weather Brewery, Tail Slap Beer Company, Tin Whiskers, Excelsior Brewing, Third Street Brewhouse, American Sky Beer, Lucid, Fulton, Finnegans, St. Croix Brewing, Olvalde Farm & Brewing, Still-H2O and the St. Croix Valley Homebrewers Association.  In addition, you'll get a commemorative pilsner glass and a brat.  The final reason is its cause.  This event is presented by the members of the Stillwater Sunrise Rotary Club.  All the proceeds from this fun event help support our Club's many service projects.

Join us on May 18th for some beautiful scenery, live music by The Thundermen, great cheese from the Bass Lake Cheese Factory, raffle prizes, great conversations and of course plenty of excellent beer.

This is a popular event with limited space.  We sold out in advance last year and we expect to do so again this year, so order your tickets now and don't be standing on the dock while the rest of us are enjoying the beer.

"In every one of our communities, there is work to be done.
As Rotarians, we will not stand idly by.  As Rotarians, we will accept our responsibility.  We can, and we must.”
