Pepin Distributing Company Hosts Third Annual Brews With Attitude Craft Beer Festival

BREWS WITH ATTITUDE

Third Annual Craft Beer Festival

For the eighth consecutive year, the Brewers Association has declared American Craft Beer Week (ACBW), a celebration of U.S. craft brewers across the country. Last year, ACBW was celebrated by breweries, brewpubs and retailers in all 50 states with over 1,300 official events. From May 13-May 19, the tradition will continue and ACBW will provide an opportunity for small and independent brewers, craft beer enthusiasts and the community of better beer retailers to celebrate the ever advancing beer culture.

Brews With Attitude, the craft division of Pepin Distributing Company and their Craft Brewing partners will be celebrating Third Annual Brews with Attitude Craft Beer Fest on Tuesday, May 14, 2013 from 6:00pm – 10:00pm on the grounds of the exquisite T.Pepin’ s Hospitality Centre. The festival is an exciting opportunity for local and national craft brewers to commemorate their art and tradition with enthusiasts across Tampa Bay. Tampa Bay beer lovers will enjoy delicious brews, great food, hand rolled cigars and live music at the festival. There will be more than 100 craft brands plus one beer that has never been released in Florida. The festival will have multiple sampling tents to house the breweries, meet and greet with the nation’s top brewers, complimentary photo for souvenir and other exciting functions.

Pepin Distributing Company will be hosting several tap takeover nights featuring craft brands promoting Tampa Bay’s thriving craft beer culture up till and during American Craft Beer Week. There will be BWA Craft Beer Fest ticket giveaways at those events. Please see www.pepindistributing.com/events for a full list of craft tap takeovers.

Tickets can be purchased online for $30 through www.pepindistributing.com. If available, the tickets will be sold for $35 on the day of the event. We realize that the beer culture is all about good times with friends, thus we have a special 6-pack ticket offer for $20 each if purchased online at once.

When the event sells out, no additional tickets will be sold. Everyone who holds a ticket will be admitted—the event will not be oversold. We want every attendee to be able to sample the beers they desire and to move around the event freely, comfortably, and safely. No one under 21 will be admitted to the event.
