Dark & Roasty Winter Beer Fest

Join us for Dark & Roasty, where the beers are bold, the weather’s chilly (on purpose), and your exothermic reactions are highly encouraged.
About this Event

Sweater weather. Stout science. A very merry gathering of beer nerds.

We’re turning the Wrigley Beer Lab Backlot into a winter celebration of bold brews, bright lights, and excellent company. Join Long Beach Beer Lab and 20+ breweries for an afternoon dedicated to the rich, roasty, wonderfully curious side of beer featuring:

• 🖤 Dark Lagers
• 🌀 Black IPAs
• 🍒 Stone-Fruited Dark Beers
• 🥃 Barleywines
• 🍫 Porters
• ☁️ Stouts

Tasting admission includes unlimited beer samples and an exclusive taster glass, your official vessel for very important fieldwork. Between samples, explore the marketplace, catch live music, find something delicious to eat, and soak up the festive lights with your fellow Lab Rats.
