Explore Gwinnett, the official tourism organization of Gwinnett County, today announced the fourth annual Gwinnett Beer Week, a highly anticipated celebration of the county’s local breweries and flourishing craft beer scene.
Taking place Saturday, September 7th through Friday, September 14th, the weeklong event welcomes beer connoisseurs and novices alike to enjoy a delightful blend of flavor and fun, featuring local craft brews, ale-centric activities, giveaways and more. This year, for the first time, Gwinnett Beer Week will conclude with Les Bon Festival, a unique beer festival highlighting small batch, Saison-style beers hosted at Gwinnett’s Good Word Brewing & Public House.
“Gwinnett’s beer scene is thriving, and there are opportunities to experience it all year long, but we do look forward to this very special annual celebration, as it gives us the chance to shine a spotlight on the true creativity and passion of our talented local brewers,” said Lisa Anders, chief operating officer of Explore Gwinnett. “Whether you’re drawn to the brews themselves or simply looking for a good time, our exciting and jam-packed line-up has something for everyone, from line dancing to a fun-filled dog Olympics. With the spectacular Les Bon Festival ending the week with a bang, this is going to be an unforgettable experience brimming with community spirit, exceptional tastings and unique activities.”

Launching during Gwinnett Beer Week, the Sippin’ in the Suburbs Mobile Beer Pass lets participants earn points redeemable for prizes by checking in at Gwinnett County’s craft beer and spirits locations. Each check-in garners points, which can then be spent on fun and collectible prizes from Explore Gwinnett, including posters, trucker hats, bottle openers, t-shirts and more. Participants who track their experience at all 15 locations throughout the week will be inducted into the Sippin’ in the Suburbs Wall of Fame, with their name cemented in history.
