VIRGINIA BEACH — Through a partnership between Eastern Sports Management and the Virginia Beach Field House, there comes a new craft beer festival.
The festival on Nov. 4 will pay tribute to military veterans through a partnership with Hire Our Heroes.
Imbibe Craft Beer and Arts Festival will feature live music, food, games, vendors, education and of course, beer.
Patrons must be at least 21 years old and will enjoy an all-inclusive ticket featuring more than 80 styles of craft beer from local, regional and national breweries.
The entertainment lineups feature live music by Big Something, who will be supported by regional favorites, People’s Blues of Richmond, and The Mantras.
Guests can also experience backyard games, including keg bowling, life-size beer pong, cornhole, human foosball and more.
In addition to drinking beer and playing games, patrons can check out a festival organizer-curated craft beer education program for those looking to learn more about the many facets of the industry.
There, participants can take advantage of hands-on workshops, demos and panels from area professionals.
Additionally, the event will have an Artisan Market and food truck rally, both comprised of local and regional vendors.
Tickets are on sale now and include unlimited samples, commemorative keepsake glassware, live entertainment, access to the Game Zone and craft beer education segments.
The festival is rain or shine with a plan to move indoors in the event of inclement weather.

The event benefits Hire Our Heroes, a Virginia-based nonprofit founded by veterans, for veterans, to empower transitioning military, veterans, and military spouses with the knowledge, skills, and innovative tools necessary to secure employment.
HOH partners with world-class organizations and people who share their vision to offer a cost-free, best-in-class, experience for the nation’s heroes.
