So what did Fest Attendees think of this year's show with the added breweries, and 2000 people limit, etc.?
Concentrate on local breweries. You don't need all the out-of-town breweries; all they do is send volunteers who know nothing about the beer they are serving.
Easier said than done since most breweries are at various events each weekend. Most Volunteers know something about the beer and with BA, Untapped, and other Beer Apps it's not difficult to look it up.
I actually thought it was very organized and well put together event. Very nice chalkboards saying what each brewery was pouring. No huge lines. Drinking on the street in one of the most beautiful little PA towns was picturesque. It was one of the best put together I ever went too.
