We have 40 different breweries on hand for this years festival, which means over 80 different beers to sample.
This event is all about educating your taste buds by sampling and comparing a variety of drink from hand-crafted beer, wine, cider, mead, and distilled spirits.
We encourage responsible drinking by featuring live music suitable for dancing or listening, food courts with gourmet items, and from the cooking stage renowned Chefs demonstrating cuisine using the "spirits" offered at the festival.
Our venue provides areas for sitting, strolling, and purchasing unique items offered by exhibitors and arts & crafts vendors. We have an attached heated outdoor smoker's tent offering a comfortable area where a cigar vendor offers additional beer and fine tobacco items.

Does that mean there will be someone pouring beer who can educate me on something other than the color of the beer......??
Probably not; pourers are usually local volunteers. However, they should be able to direct you to someone knowledgable regarding your questions.
Absolutely true. These festivals are usually such a mob scene that talking to someone knowledgeable is very difficult. I'll write up something today about it.
