Charlotte Craft Beer Showcase

Frenchy's Sip & Shop hosts the Charlotte Craft Beer Showcase on Tuesday, October 20, as part of Charlotte Craft Beer Week. It's one of the bigger stops in the city's beer calendar that year, with more than 200 craft beers from local breweries and others across North Carolina all in one place. If you're into the local scene, it's a good spot to sample a lot of different styles without having to drive all over town.

The showcase is part of Charlotte Craft Beer Week, which runs for ten days from October 16 to October 25. The whole week is built around the city's beer culture and the people who make it, with special releases, brewery events, and neighborhood crawls happening throughout the Queen City. The showcase at Frenchy's is one of those larger gatherings where you can find a wide range of what's coming out of the region.

One thing to keep in mind if you're planning to do more than just this one night: there's a free Craft Beer Week Passport you can pick up. You use it to check in at participating breweries and events, earn points, and then redeem those points for prizes like a Charlotte long-sleeve T-shirt and brewery passes. If you're going to be hitting multiple spots over the ten days, it's worth grabbing one early on.

The showcase is on Tuesday, October 20, at Frenchy's Sip & Shop, and it's part of the larger Charlotte Craft Beer Week running October 16–25.
