The Freshtival 2024

The freshest fest in the world is back, featuring the West Coast's best breweries pouring super-fresh brews among the Redwoods at SOMO Village!

is beyond stoked to bring back The Freshtival! On June 8, we will once again be collaborating with the Bay Area Brewers Guild and SOMO Village presenting the largest variety of brewery-fresh beer ever poured in one place!

As we all know, The Freshtival is a celebration of the art freshness! All of the beer poured at this event will be less than 7 days old!! That's right more than 150 beers, presented in perfect, brewery-fresh condition!

One of our core beliefs at HenHouse Brewing Company is that everyone deserves to drink great beer. We know that no matter how well beer is brewed it will not be great unless it reaches the drinker in brewery-fresh condition. Time, temperature, and travel all take their toll and can render even the most delicious beers forgettable. This is why more and more breweries, HenHouse included, choose to sell their beer locally and do everything possible to ensure the quality of their beer for the end consumer.

On June 8, 2024, dozens of like-minded brewers will gather in celebration of this new paradigm at the in Sonoma County. This non-profit event benefits the , with all proceeds going toward their work advocating for independent, local beer manufacturing.

Let's whet your thirst with...
