2010 Rails To Ales BREWFEST
"Tap in to Good Times!" Party at the Depot and Railyard! Make tracks and bring your thirst for Pacific Northwest microbrews and great live music into the station at the 3rd Annual Rails-To-Ales Brewfest! Nineteen regional breweries and hard cider producers will be pouring samples of their finest brews in the unique setting of the Ironhorse State Park's Milwaukee Road Depot and Railyard in South Cle Elum, WA. (Check www.RailsToAlesBrewfest.com for the complete brewery list.) Two wineries, food vendors and prizes will once again round out the festivities.
Getting There: Centrally located, there's easy summertime access from any direction. From the Seattle area, just a scenic hour or so I-90 Corridor drive east through the Cascades brings you right to the recently restored historic depot. Map and full directions at www.RailsToAlesBREWFEST.com
Entertainment: Starring Vicci Martinez, Eden and (the band) Free Beer @Exit 80. Live music from 3 bands provide the party atmosphere while you chug on down the line. Food: Food vendors will be on site with tasty complements to the brews and tunes. Look for pulled pork sandwiches, hot pretzels and more to be added to this year's food lineup!
Railroad Theme: Relive the history of railroad glory days and the Milwaukee Road through an easy short interpretive trail hike around the railyard and a visit to the depot's museum filled with railroad relics and memorabilia. Visitors delight at the scale model replica on display.
