Gardiner’s most popular event of the year is back! Swine and Stein Brewfest, brought to you by Burke’s Roofing and Masonry and Camden National Bank, includes all-day samples from 25+ of Maine’s best breweries, wineries and distilleries in an open air beer garden along historic downtown Water Street. Organized by Gardiner Main Street, this annual fall beer festival also features a full line up of great music, tasty food vendors, fun games and entertainment all day long. And with each ticket sold, Gardiner Main Street will donate $1 to Johnson Hall’s capital campaign to complete their vision of a fully restored 400-seat theater in downtown Gardiner.
