There are still some tickets left for Spooky Brews! You can purchase them here.
Beer list is subject to change.
Spooky Brews is just a few days away! We hope everyone has picked out their costumes. We’re busy decorating ours right now (as a reminder, no masks or real/fake weapons are permitted at the festival). Best costume wins a year-long pass to all Hop Culture 2019 festivals! (To enter, tag @hopculturemag and use #spookybrews when posting on Instagram.)
At the fest, expect to get your Halloween fix. We’ll have scary movies playing, plenty of Halloween candy, and–of course–delicious beer. We encouraged brewers to bring their spookiest brews and had some of them share their favorite horror movies with us.
The party kicks off at 7 PM on Friday, October 26th (6:30 PM if you have a VIP ticket) at the Cyclorama in the South End. VIP and GA attendees will get Sam Taylor-designed spooky tasters good for unlimited 2 oz. pours from all attending breweries. DD’s will receive a complimentary shirt, which they can pick up at the merch stand. DJ cakewalk will be providing the tunes and food will be available for purchase from The Chubby Chickpea, The Bacon Truck, and Pennypackers. Glassware, t-shirts, hoodies, and more will be available at the Hop Culture merch stand.
There are still some tickets left for Friday’s festival, in case you still haven’t gotten your passes. Also, catch us on Saturday, October 27th at Night Shift Brewing with a special collab beer and glass.
