"Backpocket Brewing Announces Border Hop Fest!
A new, one-of-a-kind beer festival featuring breweries and beers from around the Midwest that are not normally available in Iowa.
We're excited to announce Border Hop Fest! The event will be held at the brewery on May 24 from 1-5pm.
Headlining the inaugural event will be Surly Brewing Company from Brooklyn Center, Minnesota. One of the most highly-regarded breweries in the country, we bet you and other craft beer enthusiasts from around the Midwest are familiar with Surly’s bold beers and aggressive style. RateBeer has named Surly one of the top fifteen breweries in the world for several years.
Several additional breweries are scheduled to participate, including Lucid, Flat Earth and Brau Brothers from Minnesota, with many others still in the works.
Tickets are available now. You may purchase tickets online at http://tickets.theborderhopfest.com, for $30 in advance or $35 at the door. A ticket will get you unlimited beer samples, and a commemorative Border Hop Fest glass. We believe the first Border Hop Fest will sell out due to the exclusive nature of the beers to be offered, and therefore we encourage you to purchase tickets soon!
Check the Border Hop Fest website at http://www.theborderhopfest.com as the date draws closer to see a brewery list as it is updated. We encourage you to also stay connected with us via Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/BackpocketBrewing and Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/BackpocketBrew"
