$40 for only 3hrs in the middle of the day? That is a misprint right?

You should learn something from Portland, Oregon’s annual beerfest. It lasts all day and everyone is satisfied. The limited time and participants guarantees that your customers will not get their money’s worth and will almost certainly be spending most of their time in lines for very small beers.
What a way to screw up a fine possible tradition.
That’s bald faced greed for you.
Good luck, half asses.

No thanks!
For that price, get to BevMo or Trader Joes or wherever and get gallons of sweet brews, and have your own beer tasting party at home.
(L.A. by and large sucks royal snausages, when you compare it to pretty much most any of the other major cities… ESPECIALLY when it comes to Beer. without trying really hard: http://www.oregongarden.org/Brewfest.htm http://www.matsonian.com/wcbf/tickets.html
