Questions?
1. Can I buy tickets at the door?
Tickets will be available for purchase at the door unless they are sold out. Please be aware that there will be an extra fee of $10 per ticket. Please check online for availability beforehand. Remember, if tickets are still obtainable, you can also buy them online and print them at home, which will save you time at the event.
2. Where do I buy designated driver tickets?
Designated driver tickets can be purchased either online or at the door on the day of the event, as long as the designated driver is accompanying the group or person they will be driving. If a designated driver is seen drinking any of the tasters from the participating breweries, he or she will be asked either to upgrade his or her ticket or will be asked to leave.
3. What happens if it rains?
In case of rain, please be prepared to potentially get wet. Easy-ups will be deployed and with a beer in hand, you can still enjoy yourself!
4. How much is parking?
Great news! Parking is free! However, it is important to prioritize safety and responsibility, so please refrain from drinking and driving. Remember to always have a designated driver who can ensure everyone's well-being, albeit a friend or a ride-share service. Safety first!

5. If I choose to take AN UBER home and leave my car in the parking lot, will I have the opportunity to retrieve my car at a later time?
Our utmost priority is ensuring your safety, and we are committed to assisting you in drinking responsibly. We strongly recommend arranging alternative transportation in advance rather than driving yourself. However, if you find yourself unprepared to drive after the event, there are various safe options available to you. You may opt to remain at the event after 5:00 p.m., when the beer service concludes. During this time, we will continue to offer complimentary water, or sodas and food will be available for purchase. Alternatively, if you decide to take a Uber or Lyft and leave your vehicle in the restaurant parking lot, you will be able to retrieve it the following day.
6. What will happen if I misplace or damage my tasting cup?
We kindly request that you handle your tasting cup with care, as we are unable to offer replacements. However, if there are any extra supplies available, you may have the opportunity to purchase a replacement for a nominal fee of $5.00. Please note that this is subject to availability.
