Sip, Stroll, and Support Conservation at Ales for Trails

The Wilderness Center invites the community to raise a glass for conservation at the return of its popular event, Ales for Trails, on May 30, 2026 from 1pm to 4pm. A unique evening of craft beer tastings, scenic trails, and support for nature education and conservation efforts.

Following the success of last year’s event, Ales for Trails returns with an expanded lineup of local brewery partners, including Paradigm Shift Brewing, Codex Brewing, Missing Falls Brewery, Hoodletown Brewing Company, Pilot Brewhouse, and Lockport Brewery.

Guests will also enjoy food from Holy Lederhosen, a fan-favorite food truck known for its signature beer cheese dip made with Hefeweizen from JAFB Wooster Brewery.

Attendees will sample a variety of craft beers while exploring The Wilderness Center’s scenic grounds. Tastings will take place outdoors, weather permitting, with indoor accommodations available in case of inclement weather.

Tickets include a reusable souvenir tasting glass and a set of sample tickets, with additional tastings available for purchase during the event while supplies last.
