    It would be nice to have more information such as an actual keg list, an idea of what is at the silent auction, or what the "tower of beers" is. If there was info on the website, I didn't see it.

    Spaceloaf- Thank you for your feedback. Turns out we are doing a raffle of items from local breweries including bottles of beer, gift certificates, swag, brewery tours, etc. The Tower of Beers (a pyramid of cases of beer that you can win through a raffle) has morphed into a ring toss game for bottles of beer.
