At Portage’s Best, your appetite & thirst are on a mission; Two of our city’s largest non-profits rely on the charitable financial support from the people who live and work in and around Portage in order to fund their joint cause: to strengthen our community. The Portage Township YMCA and the Greater Portage Chamber of Commerce equally benefit from the event’s proceeds.

This year, we will not only feature some of the best beer and seltzers, but the latest and greatest on the boozey front. Tacos are amazing, but we are expanding the selection this year and letting our restaurants showcase their specialty.
