Happening at the World Bistro & Gardens, each $49 ticket includes a commemorative glass and 15, three-ounce tasters chosen from more than 100 beers.Ĭraft Beer Ambassador “Dr.” Bill Sysak will be festgoers’ guide through an impressive selection of barrel-aged and wood-infused brews on tap and in bottles, according to officials. Oy vey, but back to the positive, we have the Stone Oakquinox 2016 to celebrate. Officials plan to make up for the closure with produce from smaller, local organic farmers.
