    This hasn't been posted yet, so I thought I'd take care of that.

    2015 Craft Beer Summit

    The brewfest looks to be pretty stellar. At the very least, a chance to sample some Beat right?!!

    I was wondering why nobody had mentioned anything.

    I'm gonna assume the wait for Beat is probably going to be comparable to a Disneyland line during the peak of summer.

    Also, Sante Adairius announced earlier today that they'd be pouring the newest batch of West Ashley, which will be awesome. Lady in Grey too.

    We have the lines taken care of. We've got 12 lanes coming in off of 7th and 4 lanes coming in off of 5th.

    We've got the porta-potties worked out too. Should be between 75 and 100

    So how does this all work? Do we get a special glass for pours upon entry? I have never been to a festival of this size so I don't know what to expect.

    Will you also be providing a list of food trucks/vendors that will be there?

    @IQBlue , this is the first Brewers Summit, so I'm sure there are a ton of us that won't know what is going on haha.

    Yes, if you've registered for the Summit, at the Sacramento Convention Center, on Friday and Saturday you'll get a glass for that. If you've also registered for the Brewers Showcase Beer Festival then you'll receive a separate special glass.

    Not sure exactly what food truck vendors will be there but we've been discussing with the following:
    Passione Pizza
    Flavor Face
    Smokers Wild BBq
    Gyro Stop
    Miz Shirley Marie's Cuisin on Wheels
    Drewski's Hot Rod Kitchen
    New Bite Catering
    Bacon Mania
    El matador
    Fushion eatz

    Anyone hear of any other events setup yet? So far there's a Hops to Table event at LowBrau and Stone/Societe at Final Gravity on Thursday, and the afterparty event at Bottle & Barlow on Saturday? Anything on Friday yet?

    Helluva tap list at Low Brau right now kicking it off. Also CapTap is doing an early tap take over with lost abbey, red poppy and a few years of angle share available.
