It's that time of year....snow on the pumpkins, crisp fall air, turkeys on the table...and the Split Rock Great American Beer Festival. Split Rock hosts two beer festivals a year, and this in my opinion is by far the best. Lots of great breweries serving lots of great brew. If you're looking for an exciting crowded, out-of-control frat party,and huge lines...Go Saturday. If you really want to taste the beers and enjoy the fun, Go Sunday. With that said be sure to tell all your friends to GO Saturday, since we don't want Sunday to go down the crapper like Saturday did a few years ago.
The Dates are 11/22 & 11/23, Tickets are $26-Sat & $23-Sun in advance (more the day of the event but so far no one is willing to commit to how much more....so...surprise!)

This is always a good time so don't miss out. There are at least TWO bus trips that I'm aware of running on Sunday. Carl is running a Sunday bus Trip (Click HERE for details),and Kevin from the NEPA Beer Split club is also running a Sunday trip. If you're interested, I can pass your info on to Kevin. Seating is limited so don't delay. See you there!!
Straub now has a branch in Chico, CA? I don't think so! Have fun!
ReplyDeleteSam...you mean you've never been to Straub's West Coast facility?? Believe it or not Split Rock still has it as Chico on their website for the festival....
