What's the deal with the GRANDE BEER GARDEN?
For people who appreciate a great value and just want to come hang out in the park while having a delicious frosty cold pint as their beer geek friends try 130 different beers, we created the GBG with that in mind. Full pints are only $3 and you can take them anywhere in the park. Beers featured are Peroni (from Italy) and Pilsner Urquell (from Czech Republic). top
Can I come back the next day if I have extra beer tokens?
Yes. You must have your glass and wristband from the previous day. No exceptions. Beer tickets are good for all 3 days. top
Why do some beers cost more than others?
Part of what makes SIB special is the incredible range of beers we offer, both draft and bottle. The number of tickets a beer costs is based on how much the event paid for that particular beer. Some of them are among the most exspensive beers in the world. Others are medium priced craft beers from breweries in the area. And then there's everything in between.This system alone makes our event a true rarity and enables the consumer to try $40 per bottle beers for just a couple of bucks. top
What is the appropriate ID to get in?
The WLCB will accept 1) a driver's license with a photo from any state; 2) a current passport; 3) a DMV Identification card; and 4.) a military card. The state identification card and/or the military card must bear a picture of the person, the person's name, address, date of birth, a physical description and the signature of the person top
Can I bring my child?
No, but you can bring your dog! top
When do taps shut down?
No beer will be served after 9:40 p.m. on Friday & Saturday, 8:40 on Sunday. The event closes at 10pm Fri/Sat, and 9pm on Sun, so there’s still time to hang out after last call and the end of beer service. top
Is there any food on site?
SIB will offer several food options. Local Seattle BBQ legend Hot Dog Joe will have gourmet sausages, dogs, burgers, chicken, brisket, and even some rib-stickin veggie options. Mt Townsend Creamery will have amazing cheeses and Rancho Bravo Tacos will have south-of-the-border soul food.
