The inaugural event, sponsored by YRB Magazine, Bed-Vyne Wine & Bed-Vyne Brew, is expected to attract over one-thousand festival-goers for an exciting day of tastings, live music and entertainment. DJ CEO, official deejay of Fuse TV's "United States of Hip-Hop," will set the party scene for the day.
In the spirit of traditional tastings, festival-goers will sip and sample their way through the Lab's gated outdoor lot into an expansive two-level main room as they enjoy curated cuisines from local eateries, shop local vendors and experience live performances by select bands and musicians.
In addition, VIP attendees will enjoy a private tasting on the upper balcony for the first hour, including rare selections and passed hors d'oeuvres.
"As owners of our own wine and craft beer shops in Bed-Stuy, Bed-Vyne is proud to be part of the Brooklyn Beer & Wine Fest," Rotimi Akinnuoye. "Often we have to journey outside of this culturally rich neighborhood to expand our palates. We strive to bring new and unique experiences to our customers, so what better do that than with a festival in our backyard."
Tap+Cork's Brooklyn Beer & Wine Fest takes place, Sunday, August 18, from 1pm - 7pm at the Lab, located at 1428 Fulton Street in Brooklyn, New York.
