    The fest is held at the Paso Fairgrounds. The brewery is open normal hours the day of the fest...as well as on Sunday

    At best, you're going to see a lot of stragglers hung over stopping by the tasting room/brew pub that day as they hit the road. Last year it was pretty hectic in there.

    Yeah, but last year they released a new collab beer the day after. Which, almost certainly accounted for the big crowds since everyone had a reason to stop in before leaving town.

    I wonder if they'll release anything special again this year?

    Stickee Monkee should be out soon. As well as Helldorado....

    They weren't last year either. Wasn't the SARA beer that was available a collab with some other brewery who was present?

    I've been there to get last minute bottles before heading home and its usually business as normal. Slightly higher crowds in the Visitors Center & Taproom. If there's anything special on tap, the Visitor's Center would be the place to find it. As far as the Brewery Store in the back, it'll definitely be picked clean of anything special like Barrelworks bottles or boxed bottles.

    Twitter feed states they're gonna start leaking beers that will be pouring.

    Also, the Collab beer is international...

    Hmmmm...
