    The 2012 Madison Craft Beer Week builds on a highly successful inaugural year, which saw thousands of craft beer lovers enjoy more than 100 events at more than 40 venues.

    Madison Craft Beer Week runs from Friday May 4 through Sunday May 13, 2012 and features a wide
    variety of events highlighting Dane County’s vibrant craft beer culture. MCBW 2012 will feature beer
    dinners, festivals, rare bottle tastings, cheese pairings, brewery tours, classes, movies, Friday Fish Fries, and more – there is truly something for everyone, from novice to connoisseur.

    Madison Craft Beer Week promotes Madison’s thriving craft beer culture, enhancing beer knowledge
    and appreciation, by sponsoring a ten-day (two weekend) countywide festival that attracts beer tourism, fosters knowledge of our regional brewing heritage, and serves as a showcase for the Madison area’s breweries, restaurants, pubs, caterers, retailers, entertainers, and other businesses with ties to the craft beer community.
