    This is Galway Bay's first time at the RDS beer fest isn't it?
    Galway Bay were there last year, as were Whitewater, and DJs (aka Tempted?).

    Oh and good news, Beoir have 2 pairs of tickets to give away for this. I'll be raffling one off on the Facebook page but I've checked with the mods and they've said I can give one out in this thread as well. So if you want included in the draw just mention that you're going and I'll throw everyone's name into the hat closer to the time. :)

    on a side note, Ive just joined Beoir, does anyone know how I get half price tickets, figured the membership benefits certainly outweighed the cost:p

    As a mod of this forum, where do I pick up my free tickets? At the door? ;)

    It's some list of brewers though, I'll have to be a bit more tactical trying to get through all the specials! :)

    Wasn't sure about Whitewater. I don't drink much cider but didn't recognise the DJ name.

    Shows how much we've come along that there are nearly as many new breweries this year as there were breweries some years.

    I wonder ifl the brewery stands will be smaller this year to fit in the extra people.

    irish_goat, throw me into the ring for those tickets too. Hope to go on both Friday and Sunday again this year

    I'm going at some stage. Should I win, please pass on my ticket to somebody deserving so they can experience craft beer as well.

    As an admin I'm pulling rank and I'll have his ticket. :P

    Enjoyed it last year, I presume with all the extra stands it'll be in a bigger hall or spread over a couple this year?


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,139 ✭✭✭Ronan|Raven


    Will be going along. A great lineup. I will need to try and pace myself. Saturday will be a long day!

    Could you throw my name in the hat as well please? :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 22,080 ✭✭✭✭Big Nasty


    Any chance we could do PM's for the ticket lottery? It's gonna clog up the thread.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 11,766 Mod ✭✭✭✭BeerNut

    Show your card on the door. I don't think the festival has ever filled up to the point where we've had to stop admitting walk-ins, but it's probably best to get there early to be safe.

    That's a savage list.

    The first year there was only about 15.

    And there are a fair few brewers in Ireland who are not listed as well.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,748 ✭✭✭✭Lovely Bloke


    name on the list please!


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,061 ✭✭✭Uriel.

    Going to head over this year to see what all the fuss is about

    Started homebrewing recently and have one amazing ale under my belt

    Also is it reduced entry for Beoir members for this event? How does that work?

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test
