Tailspin Ale Fest Returns March 2nd.

Tailspin Ale Fest, set for March 2nd, 2024, at Bowman Field, is once again shaping up to be an unmissable event for beer lovers and those curious about craft beer culture. With VIP tickets already sold out, the focus now shifts to the Coach (General Admission) tickets, which promise an afternoon filled with exceptional beer-tasting experiences.

For $55 plus tax and fees, attendees gain entry at 3 PM, equipped with a Souvenir Taster Cup, and the opportunity to explore over 250 beers. This selection includes offerings from beloved local breweries such as Gravely Brewing and regional favorites housed in the Kentucky Tent, like Country Boy Brewing and Scout & Scholar, alongside national and international breweries.

Beyond the extensive beer list, Tailspin Ale Fest is well-known for its vibrant atmosphere, featuring a Featured Cider & Sour Bar, LIVE music to keep the energy high, Drake's Silent Disco for a unique dance experience, and Cox's Cigar Lounge for a relaxed break. This year, our friends from Ohio Valley Wrestling are getting in on the action with Brews & Brawn.

We’re also excited to share that Louisville Ale Trail will be present with a table in the Kentucky Beer Tent for the first time! We’ll have some new experiences to share for the first time so be sure to say hi.

As a reminder, Tailspin Ale Fest is a 21-and-over event, emphasizing safety and a mature environment for all participants. Also, no pets! Only marked service animals.

Parking is convenient, with a public lot available and the option to leave vehicles until 1 PM the following day (but we encourage using designated drivers or ride-sharing services to ensure everyone's safety).

For those eager to immerse themselves in the Louisville beer scene, ensure a spot by grabbing your ticket in advance (no gate sales will be available). Whether you're a seasoned beer aficionado or new to the craft beer world, the Tailspin Ale Fest offers a welcoming and enriching experience for all.
