2015 Parkville Microbrew Fest
What a blast! The 2015 Parkville Microbrew Fest took place this past Saturday and it was a muddy good time. At 1pm, the tape was cut and thousands of beer lovers entered the festival.
A few highlights of the events in terms of beer: Radius Reflux Sour, Martin City Brewing Company From Belgium with Rum, Boulevard Foeder Projekt #1, and everything from Missouri Mashers especially the MILF Project. Of course, I didn’t try everything, so there may be a few gems I missed.
The best table was Root Sellers. Old medicine bottle tap handles, an old-timey bike, and they took this year’s odd color beer with their Carrot & Apple Ale.
The longest line was for Perennial Artisan Ales who was serving Saison de Lis, 17, Regalia, and Sump Coffee Stout. I got into the line late, so the only one left on tap was the Regalia. I stayed around their table for a little while talking with some friends (the table was on an end so there was a break) and was rewarded with some Abraxas from the bottle.
If the weather stopped anyone from coming to the event, it couldn’t have been too many. The rain and muddy ground only added to the fun. Most people were prepared with rain boots and ponchos and those who weren’t prepared just went with it and eventually kicked of their shoes.
