A: Sorry but no, our temporary liquor license does not allow for underage guests. Everyone who enters the door must be at least 21 years old. No minors, including children or babies. Top Q: Where do the proceeds go? A: All proceeds benefit public radio station KLCC 89.7 FM. This event is KLCC's largest fundraising event of the year. Top Q: Why do some of the beers run out? A: Our Brewfest emphasizes specialty and seasonal brews, and sometimes the breweries only have one keg of a brew available. This means the variety is wonderful, but some brews may not last throughout the weekend, especially if it becomes the "talked about" brew that draws a large crowd. The good news is there are lots of other brews to try. The Brewfest usually offers about 200+ different brews! Top Q: What are the Homebrew Competition details?
