Penticton’s popular Beer Run is back

The Penticton Beer Run is back on this year.

Penticton’s Hoodoo Adventure Company has announced the run and walk is returning June 19 with COVID-19 protocols in place. The event is sold out with no new registrations being accepted due to COVID-19 safety protocols.

Covering eight breweries and five eateries, the 10 kilometre walk and run is a rapidly growing Penticton event with a focus solely on craft breweries.

It will work its way down the river channel, along the Okanagan lakeshore waterfront, downtown, through vineyards and along the Kettle Valley Rail Trail to the finish at D’Angelo Family Estate.

Participants will get eight tastings from eight breweries, ice cream, french fires and bread samples, a beer ticket at the finish line and a return shuttle from D’Angelo Estates to Lakeside Resort or the start line parking area.

Partial proceeds from the event will go to the Youth Outdoor Recreational Society.
