Bears & Brews 2025

From dens to drafts. Hibernation is over! This Zoo After Hours event welcomes adults age 21+ for a spring evening among the animals of the Minnesota Zoo. Make it a date night or invite a whole herd of friends for cold drinks, dining, dancing, music and animal activities. And as you explore every trail, you’ll be joining us in our work to save wildlife across the world.

Guests will enjoy:

• Samples from over 20 breweries and distilleries
• Delicious food available for purchase
• Live music and entertainment
• After-hours access to animal trails, including Treetop Trail and Farm Babies
• A chance to ride the historic Conservation Carousel
