Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
This year's Dallas Observer BrewFest, in its eighth year, takes over the Dallas Farmers Market from 7 to 10 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 8 with more than 70 breweries each sampling several of their beers. Some beers are brewed just a few blocks away, but you'll spot national and international breweries, too.
A $42 ticket nets you a commemorative tasting glass, 12 two-ounce beer tastings from a selection of more than 500 brews and the ability to buy more tasting cards should you still be thirsty. If you're feeling fancy, a $75 VIP ticket gets you into the event an hour early — to beat the lines — along with access to a VIP area with line-free bathrooms and access to full beer options and liquor-sampling, along with exclusive catered food.
If you haven't snagged tickets yet, get on it — ticket prices increase the day of the event. Here's the final list of this year's participating breweries:
