CLEVELAND, Ohio - The 14th annual Winter Warmer Fest has sold out.

It’s the third consecutive year the fest - an annual fundraiser for the Ohio Craft Brewers Association - has sold out. In 2018 and 2019, tickets were gone days before the fest. This year, we're 11 days out, and all 1,500 are gone, said Justin Hemminger, the association's deputy director.

Tickets went on sale on Black Friday, Nov. 29 for the fest, which is Saturday March 7.

Sixty-five breweries are participating, and about 230 beers will be available, with more expected. (Here's the list.)

The indoor-outdoor fest is held at Windows on the River in the Flats, with beer being poured on two levels. It features a cask-ale section, live music and food trucks. It also draws brewers themselves to mingle with craft-beer fans.
