Lagerland – Cleveland Beer Week

Lagerland – A celebration of the past, present and future of Cleveland’s Lager history! Cleveland’s rich lager-brewing heritage dates back to the mid 1800’s. That legacy provided by Cleveland’s early European immigrants has left an indelible mark on our city that continues today. Our local breweries produce a myriad of classically-interpreted Lagers that have made Cleveland one of the truly great Lager cities in the US!

End of summer is that perfect time for breweries to present the full spectrum of Lager beers such as Pilsner, Helles, Marzen, Oktoberfest, Vienna Lager, Maibock and more.

We will celebrate our incredible Lager scene with Lagerland on Saturday, August 24 at Collision Bend Brewing Co – Euclid.

Advance tickets are required at $45/person. Day drinking buddy – 2 for $80. 20 beer samples.

All proceeds benefit the Malone Scholarship Fund, Rec2Connect, and Cuyahoga Country Animal Shelter.

Must be 21 and over. ID required *All ticket sales are final, non-refundable.

Saison Fest – June 22, 2025

We’re thrilled to announce that Saison Fest is now a part of the re-imagined Cleveland Beer Week celebration! Beginning this year, instead of just a single week of events, there will be festivals throughout the year dubbed Styles of the Season. First up, is the return of Saison Fest!

Saison Fest is set for the first Sunday in summer, June 22nd, 12pm-4pm. Our list of participating breweries has surpassed 20 and we have a few more to add! We look forward to hosting you again this year as we celebrate the incredible depth and breadth of this seemingly simple ale.

“Saisons” (seasons in French) remind us that early brewing traditions were often celebrated in conjunction with the planting of fields and harvesting the bounty. They carry our imaginations through centuries of innovation and creative expression. While the reasons for brewing saisons have diversified and their ingredients may have modernized, the variety and uniqueness of these classic Belgian ales remain unparalleled.

Expect to find a wide assortment of flavor profiles from some of your favorite brewers dedicated to brewing this traditional style. Our list is not quite complete, but our early confirmations include: 4 Paws, 8th Day, Aeonian, Birdfish, Bell Tower, Brew Kettle, Brighten, Codex, Collision Bend, Forrest City, Green Valley, HiHO, Immigrant Son, Jolly Scholar, Maize Valley, Modern Methods, Noble Beast, Noble Creature, North Water, Paradigm Shift and Unhitched.

Your ticket includes a commemorative Saison Fest tasting glass for your unlimited samples. We’ll have food available outdoors for separate purchase and our brewpub will be open for regular service. We’ll have a tent to provide shade, plenty of seating, a hydration station and lively music to accompany your afternoon. We can’t wait to see you again!

This is an outdoor event. Rain or shine. No refunds.

Must be 21+ to participate, Must present ID
