Shamrock Beer Run returns to Chicago-area for the 4th consecutive year! In 2020, we will be at Busse Woods, Elk Grove on Saturday, March 7!
Start the race with a toast of craft beer. Then you get beer samples along the 5K at roughly each kilometer along the course.
Plus you may enjoy a complementary pint of beer before or after the 5K.
34 ounces total included.

Don't do 5K's? No problem.
Sign up for Brewfest Only!
We get it. 5Ks are not for everyone. But, you still want to take part in the festivities after the race, or better yet, quaff a few while your friends and others are out on the course. Enjoy the music, food, and comfort of the tents with tables, chairs and heaters (in case the weather doesn’t play nice).
