Something’s brewing in the Library… 

This is an exclusive beer sampling event where you will have the rare opportunity to taste a selection of beers by America’s oldest brewery, some of which are not available in Florida. Selections will include Lord Chesterfield Ale, brewed only in Pottsville, P.A. since 1829, and the much sought-after, limited quantity beer, Yuengling Oktoberfest.

We have brews and bites, plus a whole lot of fun on tap. There’s never been a better time to be a Friend of the Orange County Library System on Friday, October 17 from 6:30 to 8:30 pm.
