Organizers said it is with deep sadness that they have had to make the difficult decision to cancel the 9th edition of the Winter Beer Festival.
A number of factors have contributed to make this the decision for vendors, partners and guests.
Over the past week, three vendor partners withdrew, for operational and staffing issues. It reduced the participation levels below what organizers felt was acceptable.
