4 Reasons You Can’t Miss Rochester on Tap 2017!
You've heard the phrase "Bigger and better than ever!" before, right? Well that's what we promise you at this years Rochester On Tap event December, 9th!
It's hard to believe, but this will be the fourth annual Rochester On Tap. Like previous years, we'll have not one, but TWO tasting sessions. You may (or may not) remember last year, so here's a refresher!
Before I get to my list, here are a few things you should really know before you head out to the event:
Where is it being held?
Mayo Civic Center
What time does it start?
As mentioned above, we’ll have TWO sessions this year. The first starts at 1 PM and runs until 4 PM. The second will run from 6 PM to 9 PM.
Should I buy my tickets early?
We encourage you to purchase Rochester on Tap tickets ahead of time. It’s worth doing, too, because tickets go up by $10 the day of the event. Pre-sale tickets are $35 for a standard ticket and $55 for a VIP ticket.
What’s the difference between the regular and VIP ticket?
The VIP ticket is only good for the first session, and it includes an extra hour of beer tasting. (VIPs will get into the event at noon, while the general public won’t get in until 1 PM.) VIPs also receive access to extra, rare beers and a $5 food voucher.
Must be 21+ to attend.
Alright, now on to the fun!
