The Claremont Village Craft Beer Walk (formerly known as the Claremont Blues and Brews) has traditionally been a great way to experience beers from local breweries before they open, and this year is no exception.

Among the yet-to-open breweries participating in this year’s event are Rowdy’s Brewing Company (coming soon to Rancho Cucamonga) and Strum Brewing Company (coming soon to Ontario).

The event features beer tasting, food sampling and music listening all while browsing local Claremont businesses.

It takes place from 4 to 8 p.m. on Saturday (June 25).

Tickets are available online and range from $20 (plus a $2.09 service fee) for a designated driver ticket (which includes food tasting) to $45 (plus a $3.47 service fee) for a general admission ticket (which includes food tasting and 15 3-ounce beer tasting tickets).

Tickets are also available at the following Claremont Village businesses:

• Bert and Rocky’s Cream Co., 242 Yale Ave.
• Claremont Village Treasures, 141 Yale Ave.
