I have the three beers I brought to the last meeting. Mosaic Pale Ale and Brett IPA with orange and grapefruits, smoked porter. May hold back the smoked porter for NHC though.

Our link to info about the fest on our home page has incorret pricing info. We have $15/$20 and the non-VIP is $20/$30 this year. What does one get with VIP besides early entrance? I have been asked.

Early entrance is the only benefit to VIP. I am guessing there will be special pours early.

That was actually tied to the location of Benz Beverage depot. Probably information from a couple years ago.... It should be fixed.

Thanks for the notification.

So, I've recently discovered an intestinal issue with highly hopped beers. Consequently, the Pliny clone I have in the keg will henceforth no longer touch these lips! (crying right now) So I have a double IPA for the fest.
