Get this…belly up to an unparalleled selection of beers from around the world, drink your fill, and the whole time you’re doing Manitoba kids (if not your liver) a huge favour. In short, that’s what the Flatlander’s Beer Festival is all about.

Running September 16 – 18, Flatlander’s has been putting the fun in fundraising for seven years now. All proceeds go to the Manitoba Moose Yearling Foundation, a non-profit organization which raises money and provides grants to registered children’s charities in Manitoba.

On September 15, set your sights on a perfect primer at Luxalune. It’s 20 bucks for 20 samples of their extensive selection of suds. Then, on September 16, there’s the beer dinner, a $125 formal affair at Bergmann’s Deli on Lombard.

Finally, on September 17 & 18, from 7-10 pm, the Winnipeg Convention Centre plays host to public tastings of over 100 of the finest beers from around the world. Tickets are $29.95 and besides entry, get you 5 samples. Of course you can buy five additional samples at $4 a pop. And five more for another four…and five more….and five more…and oh jeez, call me a cab I gotta work in morning.

Drink a little, drink a lot, it’s bound to be good times and it’s all for a great cause so get your tickets now. Check out http://mtscentre.ca/flatlandersbeerfest/ for more information or click below for an alphabetical list of the brews you’ll be browsing.
