Noah Webster Real Ale Harvest Fest 2022

A cask competition featuring 20+ Connecticut breweries and YOU are the judge. At the 7th annual Noah Webster Real Ale Harvest Fest you will sample, and judge, beer you can’t find anywhere else. Twenty-plus breweries create a unique cask of real ale good for this one day only with one stipulation: their brew must include an ingredient from Noah Webster's 18th century garden or pantry. With over 100 items to choose from such as quince, cinnamon, rhubarb, and nutmeg, the casked creations are both creative and tasty. You will enjoy unlimited samples of dozens of unique creations and live music. Certified beer judges and special guests choose the Cask Champion and you choose the Tasters’ Choice Award Winner. Food will be available for purchase. The Noah Webster Real Ale Harvest Fest takes place Saturday, September 10, 2022 with two sessions: 2-5 p.m. and 6-9 p.m. It is held on the grounds of the historic Noah Webster House, 227 S. Main St., West Hartford, CT. Advance tickets are $50 per person. After September 2 and at-the-door tickets are $60 (while supplies last). Designated drivers are welcome at $20 per person. Guests must be 21 with proper ID. All proceeds benefit the not-for-profit museum.
