    Giving everyone a heads up before we blast the world with it. What the Funk!? returns on April 10 during the Craft Brewers Conference. Tickets are on sale now.

    What does the ticket price get you? As a broke ass graduate student literally moving to Denver 3 days prior to this, $80 isn't a casual amount of money to drop for a festival.

    Holy cow! I just assumed it would happen during GABF again this year. Thanks for the heads up, Todd. I'm glad I didn't have to deal with ticketing website server errors and a possible 5 mins sell out.

    In the doors and tasting beers. And based on the last one, you'll get a tasting vessel and beer list too.

    Food is not included (confirmed by Crooked Stave).

    Personally, I'd stop thinking and buy your ticket now.

    Screw it, if I need to eat ramen for a week so be it. Funk & Sour festivals are my idea of heaven. Palate shattering, microbial heaven.

    Any chance of applying for a media pass or at least reduced ticket price? Thanks!

    Grabbed my tix last week. Very much looking forward to this. Plus, because it's on a Thursday my wife should actually be able to go for once.

    You'll have to ask Crooked Stave. I'm just acting as friend of the event (and a pimp).

    Will do. Thanks! I want to attend this more than anything with my husband, but it's bad timing financially (taxes due--BOO!). So...we'll see.

    I would have to take vacation on Friday to make a Thur night What the Funk. I'd much rather it be on the weekend but happy for you guys that wouldn't normally get to go

    Agree with the request to hold events like this on a Friday instead of a Thursday night. Have fun everybody!

    Food is not included (confirmed by Crooked Stave). I've updated the info/thread to avoid confusion.

    With the WBC awards scheduled for Friday night, Thursday was probably the best alternative. Besides, Thursday is the new Friday.

    True dat. I guess CBC is more for breweries while Funk is more for beer geeks. :sunglasses:

    I know a ton of industry who'll be there, but they're beer geeks too.

    Who is the charity involved in this? Or does the money just go back to the breweries?

    At the first WTF I know Crooked Stave bought most of the beer which is why the price was so high. Not sure if that's the case this time around.
