Tickets are limited, so please get yours early. Each ticket includes a Keweenaw Brewfest wristband, beer tasting vessel, 12 tokens to sample a variety of beer selections, and live music.

The Keweenaw Brewfest has been a Copper Country tradition for many years, and 2023 is the inaugural year of hosting by the Rotary Club of Houghton. We are excited to bring our community together in this important fundraiser for the first time at the City of Houghton’s new waterfront pier. Proceeds from Keweenaw Brewfest will benefit the Portage Lake District Library’s Teen Area expansion project. This project will include dedicated space to provide middle and high school-aged youth access to resources and tools for projects, homework, creativity and social support.
