- Now in its 18th year, the State College Brew Expo will be held Saturday from 5:00 to 9:00 p.m. at Tussey Mountain Ski Resort. Tickets are $45 in advance, $50 at the door, and this will give your the opportunity to sample and celebrate brews both national and local. Live music and food round out the experience, and proceeds go to Coaches vs. Cancer of Penn State.
