Fall Beer Fest in Fort Worth this weekend!!
This is our 4th year in a row to host the Fort Worth Beer Festival. Each year the crowd has grown in size and last year was the biggest yet. If you have not attended this annual event, let me explain how it will work.
You do not have to pay to get in the event.
You pay for a Tasting Card so that you can sample 10 of the 25 beers we are featuring. The cards identify which beers are in the various tents. Each time you try a beer, we will pour 4 oz and then punch your card. For a $5 bump in price, you can sample from the UR Not Worthy Tent. That was Marc’s idea – to include a grouping of beers that are very rare on draft and that he has been saving for all of you! In this tent, you’ll find beers like Stone Sublimely Self-Righteous Ale, Avery Beast Grand Cru and some Vintage North Coast Old Stock.
If you find a beer you like, you can buy a full pour with tickets or 4 punches of your tasting card.
A big tent will be set up with tables and chairs to take a load off or just sit and eat some killer beer food. We’ll fire up the Brat and Pretzel tent just before 2 PM. Expect beer brats and German pretzels with spicy mustard and seasoned kraut. Perfect fall beer food for an outdoor event.
As the doors open, we will tap the bung on some Real Ale Oktoberfest. We have a limited supply so get there early. Also, I will be on hand to tap the first keg of Sierra Nevada Edge of Darkness from my beer camp. Come see us and let’s raise a glass to some great weather with friends and the best beer selection ever presented at an outdoor venue in the history of Fort Worth, Texas.
Can you post a list of all the beers that were on tap? I can’t remember what I had.

as sad but true as this is, i personally think avery beast and all the stones would sell more often, if it had a more wicked looking tap. ie the stone demons.
also people are getting in to dogfish like crazy at the lake. recommend pulling the harpoon leviathan (been out) and maybe throw another good but cheap option of dog fish. some people like the pangaea but think its pricey.
just food for thought from the front lines.
