Fifty breweries, 150 beers and 1 Island. That’s the tagline for this year’s Martha’s Vineyard Craft Beer Festival and it’s a good one. The festival takes place on Saturday, Sept. 23, at Waban Park in Oak Bluffs, and runs from 1 to 6 p.m.

Get ready to embrace your day-drinking side.

The festival is definitely a 21+ event, and will feature food, music and art. But really, it’s all about the beer, with lots of variety, plus hard ciders too.

Tickets are $69, or $89 for VIP status which gets you drinking one hour earlier than the masses (1 p.m. as opposed to 2 p.m.) and access to some special beers. There is also a $25 designated driver spot to help make the event a safe one.
