The festival also hopes to assist in promoting the emergence of the powerhouse Long Island Breweries, which have helped change Long Island’s reputation from a premier wine-producing destination to one of the nation’s fast-growing hubs for craft breweries, 8 of which are attending Beerfields including Blue Point, Great South Bay, Long Ireland, Port Jeff and Spider Bite (with more in the works to be announced). This is a perfect opportunity for Long Islanders eager to jump into the craft beer phenomenon to try all their favorite local buzz beers up close and personal with the brewers themselves.
