Pechanga Microbrew -The 9th Annual Festival

Support Veterans; Pair Hundreds of Craft Beers to Chili Cook-Off Dishes at Pechanga Festival

TEMECULA, Calif. – (April 24, 2017) – If you’ve been wanting to try out the up-and-coming Southern California craft brew scene, this June in Temecula is your chance. Craft beer makers throughout Southern California and beyond will all come together in Temecula Wine Country for a festival in support of Habitat for Humanity. The 9th Annual Pechanga Microbrew Festival and Chili Cook-off is Saturday, June 10, from 1 – 5 p.m. inside the Pechanga Resort & Casino Grand Ballroom.

Beer enthusiasts can taste unlimited samples of craft and small-production brews from San Diego, Riverside, San Bernardino, Los Angeles and Orange counties, as well as selections from Northern California, the Midwest and even the East coast. Ticket holders also can enjoy limitless bites of eight varieties of homemade chili, fired up by the award-winning chefs at Pechanga Resort & Casino. Pechanga chefs go head-to-head each year to determine the AAA Four Diamond property’s best chili maker.

With more than 100 microbreweries and craft brewers now calling Southern California home, the Microbrew Festival makes it easy for beer enthusiasts and those new to the scene to experience several breweries at once instead of traveling to each and every one, which could take weeks. Whether you’re looking for a light blonde ale, a rich stout or anything in between, you’ll find it all at the Microbrew Fest.

In addition to sampling some of the best craft beers and chili varieties and enjoying live music, the 9th Annual Pechanga Microbrew Festival features a silent auction with prizes including getaway stays, golf outings, sports memorabilia, fine wine and beer gift baskets, and much more. Proceeds from the event support Habitat for Humanity Inland Valley programs including homebuilding, free Healthy Homes and Financial Wellness workshops, neighborhood revitalization, the home improvement on behalf of veterans and the organization’s two ReStore locations.

VIP festival tickets are available for the second year in a row and are a great choice for guests who seek a more intimate environment to taste and appreciate the more than 100 beers and chili varieties on hand. VIP tickets are $65 and allow pass holders an early entry at 12 p.m. instead of 1 p.m. for general admission.

VIPs also receive an upgraded tasting glass. General admission Pechanga Microbrew Festival tickets are $50. Guests receive a two-ounce souvenir glass to sample unlimited beer tastings. Designated driver tickets are available for $30. Both ticket levels allow guests to indulge in the homemade chili and other gourmet food samples, enjoy live music by San Diego’s Safety Orange and participate in the extensive silent auction. Guests must be 21 or older to attend. For tickets or for more information, visit www.Pechanga.com or call (877) 711-2946.
