What could possibly be better than a beer festival? Not much, if you ask me, although this weekend’s Hop Scotch Festival does up the ante by adding Scotch. This spring beer and Scotch festival, held indoors at the Fremont Studios (155 N 35th) Friday and Saturday, May 8th and 9th, presents patrons with the opportunity to sample more than 50 seasonal beers, a variety of Scotches, and wine and tequila, too. Tickets purchased in advance through their website are $20, at the door they’re $25. Both include a souvenir cup and six tasting tokens; available upgrades include $5 for a flight of Mexican beers and $30 for a Scotch seminar with the Master of Whiskey which includes eight tastes of Scotch along with an excellent education.

The festival runs Friday from 5pm to midnight, Saturday from 1pm to midnight and helps raise funds for SIFF.
