    I dunno man, have you had Darkest Night? They may not be making beer out of squid ink or cereal, but i think their stuff is great.

    You're assuming that they're not brewing/bringing anything extreme for the fest.

    I think it would be kinda funny if they didn't post anything.

    Hope more are coming, I was really hoping for Bruery specifically, especially with their forthcoming east-coast expansion!

    Session #2 sold out last month. Session #3 sold out yesterday. We've got plenty of Session #1 tickets left, but not for long.

    Big THANKS to everyone who purchased tickets so far! We appreciate the support and look forward to seeing you at the 15th annual, and biggest, Extreme Beer Fest in Boston!

    In the meantime, check out the growing beer list: https://www.beeradvocate.com/extreme/boston/beer/

    There is usually one (or more) BA users that take the beer list and dump it to Excel or a Google Sheet once it is close to finalized.

    My first time attending EBF! Looks lime an amazing lineup. Do breweries have cans/bottles/crowlers for sale?

    No. It's illegal for breweries to sell or distribute at the fest.

    The closest you’ll come to this is what I did last year which is buy a bottle of TrillBOMB at Trillium, give it to a bartender at Whiskey Priest to hold, and pick it up after the festival.

    Bummed there's no Lost Abbey this year. Always enjoyed drinking their beers at EBF, particularly the sours, while everyone waited in line for their 10th barrel aged stout of the day.
