From the Organizer
We have decided to move the event to Saturday, June 27th due to the expected weather forecast. All tickets will be automatically transferred to the new date.
Welcome to The Beer Run. Where your running buddies are your drinking buddies. Run (or walk) a 5K through a historic 1800's village and natural trails to cross the finish line into a craft beer festival featuring some of the best beer and eats NJ has to offer.
Your ticket includes race registration, 12 5 oz. pours from some of NJ’s best breweries, a tasting glass, and festival access with live music, lawn games, food trucks, and more.
Save $10 per person when you register with 4 or more people.
Don’t feel like running? Grab a Beer Fest Only ticket and cheer on your crew at the finish line instead. 5K + DD and Designated Driver tickets are also available for those who don’t wish to indulge and get their friends home safe.
