The Plano Magazine Beer Walk, held on September 26, 2019, offers fun and festivities for beer lovers. The fun event welcomes adults aged 21 years and up and their kids.
Located in The Shops at Willow Bend, the annual event opens at 5:30 p.m. and offers beer from over 30 breweries in Texas, Louisiana, and Oklahoma. If drinking a cold one tops your list, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to do so at the Walk.
Kick the event off by checking in at registration, grabbing a collectible glass, and coming up with a plan of attack. With the sampling map in hand, you’ll stop at 12 different stations to taste the wares and chat with the people who brewed them. Speaking to the other brewers and vendors is half the fun. Grabbing a drink and shopping has never been so great. There is also music and prizes awarded at the end of the night. A designated driver is highly recommended to get you back to your hotel safely.
