More beers will be announced as we get closer to the event.

Cost is $20 in advance ($25 day of) and includes entrance into the festival, a festival glass, four 5 ounce pours and all the chili you can eat!

In addition to the stout fest, we are also having a chili cook off. All festival goers will have an opportunity to try and vote on their favorite chili. Additional tasting tickets can be purchased during the event.

If you are interested in participating in the chili cook off, there will be a sign up sheet at the brewery, along with a details about the parameters of the competition. There will be a fan favorite that will be determined by festival goers and a judges choice. Awards will go to the winners.

Tickets for the festival go on sale March 3rd at the brewery. There are only 100 tickets, so get yours as soon as you can. If you’re coming from out of town and can’t get in to purchase tickets, give us a call during regular business hours and we’ll hold them until the day of.
