Fabulous event and we had a great time! We do have some feedback, but overall is was a great event:
1. Too many people / too small of an event area. It was VERY hard to tell when lines for the tables were because people were jammed-packed in the main room.
2. While it was great to taste beers from all over, there were several breweries there that we fell in love with their brews but would be unable to purchase them in the tri-state area. I fell in love with one but most likely will never be anywhere near the brewery in TN
3. More tables! The food was great but there was not a sufficient amount of tables to enjoy the food at.
Thank you again for a great time!
Always premium breweries!
Great experience. This was my first time. The lines to get in initially were confusing and disorganized. I did not realize that the base ticket was not allowed in until 1:00 so a lot of waiting around. It was cold and windy. I removed my jacket at the coat check and then had to stand in line outside. There could have been a few more eating tables. The music sucked.
Great food and even better beer selection.
The event was great! However, I had general admission and my ticket said 12-5pm. This is/was incorrect. General admission was at 1pm. A little confusing.
boy did we kick dry January to the curb! this was our first time at this event and we will be back next year! We did the VIP which I believe was worth the extra expense. The VIP area was a nice escape from the crowd. I am not sure if the rule was enforced too harshly but it did not bother us. We did check in the day before, which helped us get into the event quicker. It may be helpful to have someone at the check-in door on the day of the event to guide people. We did wait in the line for a bit until another patron told us we could go right in and grab our tasting mugs since we had already checked in. The staff were all super friendly and accommodating. The food choices were excellent and were always replenished. I would have liked some more merch options from Dewey (we did visit the brewery of course) as well as having the other vendors bring merch. I would have loved to support some of the other breweries that I am not able to visit. This was a really fun event and well organized all in all. Can’t wait until next year!
Another really good event. Great venue and great breweries attended. The food provided pairs well with beer too. Only negatives for this year that hopefully will be improved next year: 1. Seemed more crowded than last year and was tough to get around. 2. Brewers brought less stouts than last year and ran out of beer too quickly.
I’ll be back next year for sure!
Awesome event! Amazing beer, food, and people! Can't wait for next year!
Beer selection was great, food was very good, venue was good. Needed more pretzels in the last hour and a half. Could have used more places to sit in the GA section, though it would have take up more room. It needed to be clearer on all of your information and tickets that the GA entry started at 1 pm, not noon. We would not have come as early as we did to wait in the cold.
Went with my family….we had a great time! The brewers in attendance offered a great selection of beers and were willing to spend the time to describe the ingredients that went into what you were tasting. Personally, I could have done without hearing the Eagles fight song lol. Thanks to Dewey Beer and friends for holding the event. We look forward to next years event.
