Summer is in full swing and what better way to cool off than sampling cold, delicious, beer! The Long Island Craft Classic returns to Heckscher State Park and will once again feature over 50 brewers and 100 styles of beer for attendees to sample! From local favorites like Blue Point Brewing Company, Long Ireland Beer Company, Montauk Brewing Company and Port Jeff Brewing Company to national favorites like Sam Adams, there will be something for every beer drinker to enjoy. Also keep an eye out for new up and coming breweries from the area. Is beer not your libation of choice? Not to worry, in addition, a handful of cidermakers, Riverhead Ciderhouse and local wineries will also be on site to offer samples as well.

This tasting event will feature an incredible variety of beverages from the local New York market and from around the country – all gathered together to help raise funds and awareness for three locally based non-for-profit organizations; Kids Need More and the Natural Heritage Trust.
