The event was originally planned as an invitation-only party, but when word got out, the public was invited for a $10 entry charge. 

The occasion included live music and food trucks in the parking lot, guided tours of the brewing facility and beer tasting at a big, circular bar surrounded high-top tables. 

This tasting room/retail store provides visitors with a full view of the beer production area through a glass wall that extends from counter height all the way to the ceiling.
