Join us on the Hunt for Bessie, the Loch Ness Monster of Lake Erie, on Wednesday, May 28, 2025

As part of the BESSIE Search Team, you are encouraged to document your hunt with your cell phones and share your photos in our online photo album. Feel free to dress the part of an explorer or for boating on Lake Erie! Bessie Kolsch is clean, light, and refreshing and we can guarantee a sighting. Perfect for lake or land, wherever your adventures take you. Patio games will be out and hopefully, we can soak up some sun. 

Dinner will be provided by MVP and our special release will be…the Bessie Kolsch.
