Bought a couple tickets this weekend.

What can I expect in terms of what breweries will be represented?

I look forward to trying out some of Brasseurs La Maison brews as well.

Prepare yourself for long lines and small cups.

Long lines were not the case at all last year and the weather was beautiful that day.

I've been the past 3 years and I haven't dealt with long lines. The cups are small for a reason. Moderation is important.

we were discussing this over the weekend. Since this is my first year not in the service industry, i plan to enjoy Beerfest to its fullest extent.


Yes that will be me doing in the parking lot.

I'll be at the Bicycle Brew Club tent. If you see a kid at that tent who doesn't look old enough to drink, say hey.

I'm sure BRPD will be all over the streets!! Hope everyone has a DD and if you have that ... inspection sticker up to date ... and if you've done that you better have been buckled up and if you did that correctly make sure you turn on your blinker before turning out of the beer festival and if you did that ....


awh, nevermind. you're screwed.

That poses a problem. Because i don't think you can just leave your car at the rural life museum, and i don't even know if taxi's will come out there.

Let some other drunk assholes run point and get pulled over, then sneak on by.

Not sure where you live, but I took the bus to it two years back, though I'm pretty lucky because the same bus that goes by the Lake stops right in front of my house, so need need for a transfer.

Do you guys know if they have a cheaper ticket available for designated drivers or do they have to pay 30 bucks too? Doesn't say anything about it on their website.
