2025 CNY BREWFEST RECAP
The 2025 Wildcat Sports Pub CNY Brewfest presented by Sweet Grass was a BREW-tastic time this year! Held inside the Horticulture Building at the New York State Fairgrounds on Friday, January 31st and Saturday, February 1st, the CNY Brewfest celebrated our 28th year! We offered 150 different Brews along with ciders, canned cocktails, seltzers AND mocktails for over 1,600 guests. New this year, we welcomed “Brew-cade” presented by RetroGameCon which featured free play from Nintendo 64 to PS5 for guests along with our FREE cornhole zone thanks to our friends at the Syracuse Sports Association. The 2025 CNY Brewfest was a definitely a can’t miss event of 2025!
