An inclusive craft beverage festival is coming to Philadelphia this month, bringing together breweries, cider makers and other producers for an afternoon of tastings, music and conversation.<\/p>\n
\u201cA New Pour\u201d will take place Sunday, April 19, at the Pennsylvania German Society in Spring Garden, just ahead of the Craft Brewers Conference, which runs April 20\u201322 in Philadelphia.<\/p>\n

In addition to tastings, the festival will include live music, food trucks and panel discussions on topics like sour beer production and non-alcoholic beverage trends.<\/p>\n
Food will be available from vendors including La Llamita Vegana, a woman-owned plant-based Peruvian concept.<\/p>\n
General admission runs from 3 to 7 p.m., with a VIP hour from 2 to 3 p.m.<\/p>\n
VIP tickets are $75 and include early entry, exclusive pours, a Pink Boots Society-branded glass and access to designated seating with food options.<\/p>\n
