    They are great, and I think I can say that even though I am a driving force in their organization and execution. We are a Texas born, family run company that has been bringing craft beer to good folks in TX for over 17 years. our festivals always have a quality list of beers from locals to those that traveled half way around the world to get here. Also, as a side note, VIP tickets sold out in two days if that's any indicator. This is our fifth festival in Austin, and they get better every year. Hope to see you there

    Feel free to message me here if you have any questions

    Any idea on when tickets will be available for the event at the Fort Worth location?

    Usually our target is tickets are available for sale 6 weeks out, are discounted $15 ($25 a ticket) for the first week or two, discounted $10 ($30 a ticket) the month leading up to the event, then full price ($40) day of.

    The Fort Worth event will be happening the Saturday of the OU-UT game. They are going to take up a bit of the street this year and the whole patio. I imagine since it will be the first year of it at the new location there may be some.....growing pains. Really unless the city of Fort Worth allows them to close street(s) the event will only be able to hold a fraction from past years or be insanely packed.

    Details for Fort Worth event just went up. I have ever reason to believe the rare tapping for this are going to be amazing.

    That's outstanding....I think that makes for about as much room as the parking lot setup. I tossed my name out there to Shawn if you guys need volunteers this year

    We would, but the Land Lord in San Antonio won't let us block off any of the parking and that leaves us with no space to throw one. The city of Ft Worth will let us close a major thoroughfare through downtown, but they wont let us block off a few measly parking spots in San Antonio. Sorry!
