THANK YOU....
We extend our gratitude to our phenomenal volunteers, many of whom have been with us since our first event 9 years ago.
To our brewers, nearly all of whom donate their tasty brews to our event, allowing us to revel in the inspiration of their craft.
To our sponsors, without whom this would be a much lesser event... Recology, who donated their services to keep the event clean. Beach House Greetings, who maintains their status as the premier local ticket outlet. To Chip Erickson, for sponsoring the supremely talented Mark DuFresne Band. To the City of Shoreline, for donating printing services this year.
To our nonprofit beneficiary NUHSA, Mike Brown Productions (running a silent auction to benefit NUHSA) and Tshirt designer Doug Wheeler, all of whom reminded us of why (besides a love of beer) we do this thing.
And a personal thank you to our amazing BrewFest Committee, from Lisa. We have an unbelievably talented, driven committee who makes this thing go. Thank you to Bill Montero, Lynnea Jardine, Michael Kapuscinski, Tom Mailhot, Domenick Dellino, newcomers Craig Pape, Shanti Lanese and Tim Summers, and extra special thanks to warrior Pete Gerhard, without whom we would be in dire straits.

(8% ABV, 20 IBU)
Hop & Oats Pale Ale
