10 Ways to Make Alefest a Perfect Event
OK, I admit: It’s almost perfect already…
But talking over last weekend’s gourmet-beer event at Carillon Park with some friends, I came up with a quick list of things that would make it AMAZING:
Bigger glasses. 6 oz would be better than 4, wouldn’t it?
A misting fan to cool things off. Like they have at amusement parks.
Free water! Maybe somebody would donate it?
More water whether it’s free or not.
Another food tent. If there was more than the one I saw way back in the far corner, I missed it. I know it’s mostly about the beer, but after two hours I needed a snack.
Faster entry. That line kills ya… Any way to get folks in faster? C’mon! There’s beer in there!!!
Line workers to make sure folks in that lonnnnnnng line know whether they’re in the right one or not.
Signage on the tents so you can follow the program better. And maybe list some highlights of what’s inside? I talked to a first-timer who was a bit overwhelmed and wasn’t sure what was where.
Make sure folks know it’s OK to bring in your own folding chairs. Or have more of ‘em provided.
A central mega-tent in the middle of the yard. Oh, yeah.
Hey, like I said… great event anyway. Seeya next year! Oh, almost forgot:
Number 11. Make sure I win the DVAC T-shirt raffle. Dammit!
