As tempting as it is to spend the winter hibernating, adventure is calling. What kind of adventure, you ask? Perhaps you could broaden your horizons by exploring the snowy expanses of New England’s winter hiking trails. Alternately, you could scale a completely different kind of summit—a Beer Summit, that is.

At the first 2016 event for this fan-favorite craft beer fest, you can expand your palate by trying the diverse offerings (many of them local) from one of the 46 confirmed brewers and cider makers descending on Boston’s Park Plaza Castle. Here’s the confirmed roster.
