Small Brewer's Festival of California

[Stodbrew]

August 14-15, 2004, Mountain View, CA, behind the Tied House. There will be around 40 mostly local Bay Area breweries, with a few better known breweries pouring their beers. One of the best festivals in the Bay Area. Always a great turnout of both breweries and people. Definitely a must go.

They are also having a homebrew competition, for all of the homebrewers out there. I believe the winner gets to brew a batch of the winning beer at the Tied House.

Just wanted to let you all know.

Worst excuse for a "beer fest" I've EVER attended.

A boring circle jerk for the distributer "reps" of micro- brewery draft biz.
No Brewers....just a back-yard promo for Tied house and thier hand picked "charities".

No wonder it was cancelled last year.

Don't hold back now, tellus how you really feel. :D

I have seen similar results with some of the local and regional events we participated in. We stopped sending our beer to them because we could not compete with the moron's anymore. When they added the AB, SAB, Coors products to the show it brought out bubba and his sister/wife who. We finally said screw this and never went back.
