For the first time ever, Brews Around the Zoo is a 2-day event! Join us for a weekend of craft beverage tastings, live music, and wild fun – with two distinct events to match your style!
Both days feature 30+ tastings including craft beer, seltzers, canned cocktails, and wines, plus live entertainment as you sip and stroll the Zoo.
