Edmonton International BeerFest
Is it your first time attending a beer festival? Perhaps it is not your first time. Maybe you have been to a beer festival but feel like there wasn’t enough time to enjoy every vendor. Use this guide to get the most out of your beer festival experience!
Slow and Steady
Keep in mind that a beer festival lasts for several hours. Don’t be hasty, take your time, enjoy. To really take your time, get a weekend pass. That way you won’t miss out on any great beer.
Pack Some Snacks
We all know what happens when you drink on an empty stomach. Pack some snacks or grab a bite at the festival. Hard pretzels are perfect snacks for BeerFest because they cleanse the palate for beer tasting.
Get Some Sleep
Beer festivals are an all day thing, get plenty of rest so you are able to enjoy yourself.
Get Your Ticket
The last thing you want is for the beer fest to sell out before you get your ticket. Find out the dates and details of the event. Try to order your ticket in advance to avoid the heartbreak. Buy your tickets here.
Write down the beers that you like
When you fall in love with multiple beers at the fest you’ll want to remember the name, what it pairs well with, and where to purchase. Take notes.
Stay Hydrated
Drink lots of water. All alcoholic beverages dehydrate the body so it’s best to drink up! Dehydration causes headache, fatigue and lots of sweating. Three ways to ruin your fun!
Keep Cash on Hand
There will be lots of vendors with awesome things you’ll want to buy. Be sure to have some money on hand. It’s possible that many vendors accept cash payment only. You don’t want to spend precious time standing in line for the ATM.
Come with cool people
You’re there to have fun and enjoy yourself. Go with people that are like-minded and you’ll be sure to have a good time.
