This year 27 breweries served 66 beers. I tried 'em all! The event expanded out to the beer garden to accommodate the additional breweries. Even after the VIP hour was over, lines for beer weren't long at all. Just like last year, it was cloudy, cool, and somewhat rainy. 70s music added a nice touch to the fest.
