Of course, those who are going to bring beer get in free (max people 10 per club)! If you intend to go please post here so we can start working on the plan. I've setup the fest app so you can sign up beers once we get closer. http://crbeernuts.herokuapp.com. Setup starts at noon. Last year we took down the trailer and set up a bar.

I'd be glad to pull the trailer if needed again this year.

On my calendar.
This is a very fun event. I've been every year and they do a very nice job. Plus, it's good to support them, as they have been very good about supporting our Festival every year.

Who is the lead on this? I have the supplies for the 6 tap in my garage that need to go to this festival. I’d like to arrange an exchange.

I believe Brian offered to tow the trailer so I think the plan was to use a bar. Looks like I'm going to be going now after all so I could tow if Brian can't.
