Tickets are now on sale for the fourth annual Suttle Lodge Winter Beer Festival, taking place Friday, February 24 through Sunday February 26th, 2023. This Bavarian-inspired outdoor festival offers a full weekend of fun under the pines of the Deschutes National Forest with 25+ craft breweries, food, live music and cozy winter lodge vibes, all benefiting a great cause.
The Lodge’s six Rustic Cabins will be transformed into mini-pubs serving seasonal and limited release craft beers from all around Oregon.
“We’re excited to share new releases from some of our favorite Oregon breweries, revel by the warmth of the fires, enjoy the music of the Suttle Lodge house band, and meet new beer-loving friends,” says Donald Kenney of The Suttle Lodge & Boathouse. “There’s something magical about the crisp forest air in the winter time.”
For those looking for a little extra, the festival’s VIP ticket experience includes access to a VIP Bar tucked into The Den of the main lodge serving tasty winter cocktails, as well as access to a “secret” decked out cabin stocked with limited edition beers.
Single Day and Weekend Pass tickets are available with GA and VIP options, ranging from $50-$160 per person. Designated drivers and kids have free entry, and well-behaved dogs are also welcome.
