I volunteered and worked in the Broo'ers tent last year serving the beer and working at the ticket table.
Tickets were $2 each. One ticket got you a sample, which is about 3 ounces or so. Three tickets got you a cup of beer, which is about 16 ounces.
At the ticket table, we were only instructed to ID people who absolutely looked to be extremely underage. Otherwise, it was way too busy to card every single person who looked the least bit questionable. If you look 18, chances are you won't get carded at all.
It was CASH ONLY. No credit/debit cards.
I served for Terrapin two days and Starr Hill on Sunday. Our booth was right beside Magic Hat, which kept the place jumping the entire weekend. My husband and I have put in to work the Broo'ers tent again this year. We should get verification of our request by tomorrow night. I'm hoping to be there and meeting all you great people. Regardless, you should definitely stop in. It's supposed to be a great time this year. They are setting it up with an actual bar like atmosphere and there is supposed to be live entertainment inside the tent. It will definitely be a place NOT to miss.
On a related note, I have reliable information that Starr Hill will be available all over the festival grounds this year!! Not just in the brooer's tent. I'm super excited about that!! Starr Hill makes some great bear. I don't know which specific ones will be sold everywhere, though. I'm guessing the amber, but we'll see...
Sometimes the Brooer's tent has some cool exclusives / samples. I remember in 2005 Circus Boy didn't even have a name yet, (like #13) but they had it there for people to try.
It's VERY expensive for a craft beer to be there as a part of it, but it's great exposure and fun to be a part of. This year the tent itself got an upgrade - I think in one of the announcements they mentioned actual bar areas for serving...
Anybody have any idea if the Brooers Tent accepts credit cards? Or any of the Beer stands for that matter?
You minds as well leave your credit card at home. If my memory serves, none of the beer stands will take your credit card. Ditto on the food stands. We did once use a card to buy a hoodie from a vendor on Shakedown, but he had some special device what worked over celluar signal.
Some of the stores (not the beer or food) in Centeroo will take plastic. Pretty sure the official merch tent does, as well as the Art of Such and Such. Other than that, you'll need cash.
The music store in the Sonic Village took plastic last year too. As others have said though, just carry plenty of cash. It's accepted everywhere and it's not like it goes bad if you don't spend it all.
