(Newser) – They can’t promise German sausage or bonneted barmaids, but North American beer festivals pour pint after pint of terrific local brews. Portfolio lists the best in fests, from now through October.

  1. Mondial de la Bière (May 28-June 1): Try beer, cider, mead, and cheese over 5 days in Montreal.
  2. Oregon Brewers Festival (July 24-27): Enjoy free-admission tastings of more than 70 local beers at this Portland event.
