Fest-of-Ale celebrates local breweries as they bring their best offerings to the Garden for tastings. Attendees receive a tasting glass to sample beers from over 20 of the region's best breweries while enjoying live music and the Garden's fall scenery. 

Event proceeds benefit the Garden's Outdoor Youth Corps education and workforce development program, which connects St. Louis region youth ages 16 to 24 with environmental stewardship projects, community engagement opportunities, and potential environmental careers.

Ticket price includes a commemorative glass, beer sampling, and live music. Food available for purchase.

All attendees must be at least 21 years of age. Fest-of-Ale is a rain or shine event. In the case of inclement weather, tasting areas may be moved indoors.
