| how does the sampling work? i doubt its all you can drink... i went to the "good beer festival" in hamilton, and i got SCAMMED. a bunch of my friends went and thought the $12 admission included drinks (how stupid were we? i mean, 12 bucks for unlimited drinks?? what were we THINKING?). to make a long story short, we all spent over 50 bucks to get trashed. these festivals are a scam... hahaha... but the beer is good, so if you have a lot of money to kill, its a good place to go. |
