​​The East Coast’s premiere resort and casino is widely known for hosting ​exceptional Tasting events and Festivals. We at HOMBRE recently had the opportunity to attend the Sun Brewfest. This was a brew lover’s paradise and featured an unending supply of the top brands with a chance to sample craft brews, microbrews, imports, domestics and ciders. There was lively musical entertainment spread out across two days, and delicious signature food from local restaurants. Best of all, attendees had a chance to speak with experts and  representatives to discover the subtle intricacies that set brands apart.

We highly recommend you also add the Sun Brewfest event to your 2023 Calendar. It’s scheduled for Saturday October 7th and Sunday October 8th. Both days deliver endless brews. The first night gets revved up with a sampling of brands and a party, be prepared to dance. On Day 2 they go all out with over 100 brands participating. This is the time to try and compare all your favorite brews… and keep going back for more. Drink responsibly and make your plans early for a weekend stay at Mohegan Sun.

The Whisky Union

The 2023 Mohegan Sun schedule of Tastings and Festivals must be experienced. Other upcoming tasting events include The Sun Whiskey Union with top-of-the-line whiskey, scotch, bourbon and rye – as well as sample craft cocktails. If you enjoy a different spirit explore The Sun Tequila Tasting​.

There’s also the Sun BBQ Fest which celebrates the best in barbecue with lots of food, cold beer, hand-crafted cocktails, and live music. Attendees are invited to enjoy full plate vending from nationally acclaimed BBQ teams, sample small bites in the People’s Choice Competition, or participate in the annual Wing & Rib competition.​  

Make 2023 a year to remember by experiencing diverse cuisines, little known brews, and comparing the best known whiskeys and tequilas; all while trying your hand at Blackjack, unwinding at the spa, and relaxing in plush accommodations. Mohegan Sun delivers it all.
