Do you like great beer? Then you are going to love the 1st Annual East Kootenay Beer Festival at Fairmont Hot Springs Resort. Taking place on the weekend of June 15-16, 2012 our new annual Beer Festival is definitely shaping up to be an incredible weekend for beer appreciation.  Building on the reputation of our successful East Kootenay Wine Festival, now entering its 11th year, our beer-loving locals, guests and staff demanded a unique Festival to celebrate the magic of hops!  

The Festival itself will take place at Mountainside Golf Course on Saturday June 16, with live music, great food and of course, lots of beer to experience and taste. Full weekend packages also include a gourmet beer-paired dinner on the evening of Friday June 15.
