Orlando Beer Fest

True, you can enjoy unlimited samples from Florida breweries. But if you’re only coming to Orlando Beer Fest for the beer, you’re missing out on half the fun. After a few (dozen) samples, you’ll be ready to hit up the food truck pod, where there’s something for every taste. Autumn Saturdays, of course, mean college football, and we won’t leave sports fans stranded: There’ll be a big inflatable screen showing the games. VIP guests get to enter at noon, two hours ahead of general admission, but we suggest getting there early even if you have a GA ticket; the line wraps around the corner every year. That’s just what happens when you host the best beer fest in town. 2-5 p.m., Orlando Festival Park, 2911 Robinson St., orlandobeerfestival.com, $40-$80
