Got this from my Beer-Buddy Chris DePeppe regarding the upcoming Shark River
Beer Fest!
NEPTUNE, NJ.
October 2, 2012 – The brand new
Shark River Beer Fest will be held Saturday, October 20 at Sunsets Waterfront
in Neptune and will showcase over thirty craft breweries and more than fifty
different beers.
The event will also feature a great buffet highlighted by
some interesting beer and food pairings.
The new chef and management at Sunsets are excited to bring this event
to their unique indoor/outdoor space and expect it to become an annual
celebration.
The breweries involved are also excited to sample their
products to a new audience.
John
Merklin, owner of East Coast Beer co. in Point Pleasant Beach, sees this as
another sign of the growing beer scene in Jersey, "The fact that the
Jersey Shore is supporting more craft beer festivals is a testament to the
growing appetite and interest local folks have in craft beer."
East
Coast will be joined by NJ breweries such as Carton, Cricket Hill, Flying Fish
and New Jersey Beer Co.
Award-winning regional breweries such as Yards, Brooklyn and Sixpoint
will also be there, along with Sam Adams, Stone, Ommegang and many more.
Beers to be sampled will cover the full spectrum of styles
and feature seasonal flavors as well as a “Hoppy Hour” IPA Bar on the
patio. Breweries will be stationed
on the covered patio and at the outside bar and a full buffet will be open all
day to VIP ticket holders.
The new Sunsets is open year-round and features a diverse
menu, casual dining room and brand new big-screen televisions for live sports
(including the NFL Package).
Sunsets is located on Rt. 35 just over the Belmar Bridge and across from
the Shark River Marina.
The Shark River Beer Fest will have one session from 2-6PM and a limited number of tickets will be
sold. Once the event sells out, no additional tickets will be available
for purchase. Tickets are $40 each or $55 for VIP Tickets which include
the full buffet, and all tickets can be purchased at the event website www.beerheads.com. General Admission tickets include
admission to the tasting, a souvenir tasting glass, the freedom to enjoy 2 oz.
samples of any of the beers, and free parking. Designated driver tickets
are also available for $10 each. No one under 21, including designated
drivers, will be admitted and photo ID is required for entry.
