Did you know there's been no better time to be a craft beer lover than right now? There are currently more than 5,000 breweries in America responsible for the 20,000+ beer brands available in the U.S. And, not only that, the Brewers Association estimates more than 2,000 craft breweries are in the planning stages. This is a historic time in American beer history, and you have a chance to be a part of it. Or at least sample it. 

This Saturday, August 12, aXis Magazine is bringing their "Endless Summer Edition" of the Great Orlando Craft Beer Fest & Crawl to Downtown Orlando. Anyone from the craftiest of connoisseurs to the casual crawler is invited to sample 15 craft flavors in 15 of downtown's favorite haunts. All samplings will happen inside bars, so rain or shine come keep cool and dry with a beer in-hand. The venues will be open to the general public during the bar crawl and will be serving their regular food and drink menus in case you get hungry.
