But..

$45 per ticket which includes entry, a commemorative tasting glass, and 16 4 oz sample pour tickets. Additional tickets and food available for purchase additionally at the event.

I’ll be providing more information as it becomes official and adding it to the event listing: http://www.ratebeer.com/event/17837/destihls-1st-barrel-firkin-festival/

Cheers, guys! Hope some of you can make it out!

Pssh, that’s the same day as Perennial’s Midwest Belgian Fest. Details are being officially released today, but we do know it will have 25+ guest breweries pouring their stuff - including some from your area, thanks to Phil’s connections up there - and it goes from 3-7 in the afternoon.

Oh, and Perennial’s is $35.

...and presumably doesn’t have a 16 pour cap, right? At all the local beer fests I’ve been to, the ticket price grants you access to everything within.

Presumably. There’s supposed to be a full release later today. And I’m not knocking Destihl’s fest, which sounds awesome. Just giving Adam a rough time. 7/28 will be the start of STL Craft Beer Week, so it’s a busy time and I don’t think many beer geeks will be leaving town.
