I love Hopfest. I can bus it home. They have lots of beer. It’s not ridiculously crowded. I could go on.
Tickets are now on sale for the May 16th craft brew festival. I recommend the VIP tickets, personally. You’ll get in at 1:00 and have a better chance at the rarities that may not last long once the plebes are let in at 2:00.
We’ll post more info when we get it. But you can get your tickets now.
Hop Fest Tickets for 2015
General admission will run you $40. VIP will set you back $60. That’s an Abe more than last year. Get them from the Well’s website.
Update April 30
For a short time, enter the code “FACEBOOK” and get $5 off your ticket. Sweet! Get those now!
