    I'm going. Anybody else planning on making it to this?
    Went last year and was BLOWN away by how much ridiculousness was there.
    Hands down one of the best events I've attended in regards to beer. Most of the offerings were either one offs or just never available in bottle form. Splurged this year and got VIP.
    Curious to know if anyone is traveling from out of state and how wide spread the word of this event gets shared. Here's the link for who & what will be offered.

    One of the 2-3 best festivals in the state/region for sure.

    We'll be there - we've been every year it's happened - this is the first year we won't have Imperial tickets, though, thanks to the website SNAFU on the day of the sale. :angry:

    They update their Facebook page with the beer list, as well.

    There are 4 of us coming down from RVA and we have the Imperial tickets. This will be my first RR and I'm looking forward to trying all those sours already listed.

    It's gonna be a tough ride home afterwards. Thankfully we have a DD.

    I'll be there with Imperial tickets also. This event and the Bull City Food and Beer Experience are my favorites.

    RVA nice. First time going Imperial but from what I can gather it's not horrible to go with the regular ticket. My brother in law is coming from Ocracoke and he;s mega pumped for this event. Poor dude has nothing but shit beer to normally choose from so he'll be raging this event for sure

    Yes, but he does have Ocracoke, no? What an amazing place! Hopefully he provisions up nicely for Winter in The Atlantic.

    Hope everyone has a great time, it feels nice outside today so should be more pleasant than last year when it was cold as a witch's tit. I got embarrassingly hammered at it last year, pace yourselves! Plenty of great beer to go around!

    Also be sure to get home safely!

    This is one of the best festivals that I've been to - I've enjoyed it for the past three years and am sad that we'll miss it this year. As a result, I do have two tickets for this in case anyone is interested.

    Not in Tyler's. There is a large scale tent set up at the far end of the parking lot behind the building that has Peace China and O2 Fitness; as if you take Semart Dr all the way to the end
