Mission
Our mission is to educate the public in beer appreciation and beer quality and to build the local beer community. We do that by hosting a festival where our guests have the opportunity to taste samples from a wide range of beers, discuss the beer with brewers and knowledgeable servers, and attend special tastings conducted by beer experts from All About Beer Magazine, Americas leading beer publication.
History
All About Beer Magazine has presented 16 festivals in our home state of North Carolina over the past 13 years. We’re proud that the World Beer Festival is recognized as one of the premier beer events in the country, with Forbes.com, USA Today and Wired all calling attention to it.
Atmosphere
Designed as a beer tasting, the World Beer Festival encourages small samples from a wide range of world-class beer styles. With different areas devoted to beer, entertainment, food, merchandise and relaxation, the festival creates a unique atmosphere that promotes responsible consumption in a relaxed, enjoyable setting. Our goal is that our guests leave the festival appreciating and understanding more about beer flavor and diversity.
Community
Along with building a thriving local beer culture, we are also committed to working with other local players that help keep communities strong. The World Beer Festival presents the best local music, and hosts local restaurants and catering companies, with the goal of creating an entertaining, educational and welcoming environment for the festival. We also partner with a local non-profit organization and donate a part of the festival proceeds to them. Over the years, the World Beer Festival has contributed over $100,000 to local causes.
