How was the Brew & BBQ?

Did anybody go to that this weekend? How was it? I might make an effort to go to next weekend to attend this.

I'm going tomorro, I'm sure ( hoping) its a lot of fun. Hi m sure it will be, posting this while drunk at put in bay.

I talked to a few guests today who went to the event, I didn't hear any negative comments, all seemed to enjoy it.

So I bought one day park tickets last week that I plan on using tomorrow, however I just found out about this event. Will I be able to purchase a pass for the event itself at the park tomorrow?

I'm sure you can. It's fifteen bucks, I don't know why they'd turn that away.

What?!? I'm shocked.

I enjoyed it very much. Was way worth the price. I paid $15 from the PPH benefits. I was told it was $15 for hotel/marina guests and $20 for park guests when I asked inside the event. I still think its worth $20. If I go back this weekend I'll be buying another ticket. The food is good and lots of beer to taste.

I saw on the website it said in advance tickets are $15. Are they more if you buy them there? Can anyone confirm?

Does anyone know if you have to be 21 to attend? I would really like to go and sample some of the food. It sounds delicious!

With a season pass I paid $20 at the pavilion. Kids under 10 are free but get no drink or meal tickets.

Plenty of food to share. Great deal. Great location. Had a great time. Wonderful food. Nice portions. Free soft drinks.

It was amazing! I hope CP continues to do this event annually.

Excellent value, beautiful location, great food and of course a nice beer selection. I wish I could do it next weekend as well, but will be out of town.

This was a really funny thing to read.

I'm going next Sunday. So was it $20 including tax or was there additional tax? I just checked the online price and it comes out to $17 including tax and processing fee. My printer is running low on ink, but $3 isn't a huge a deal to me, so I'll just buy my ticket at the pavilion. Did they take credit cards there? I know that's probably a dumb question and they do.

They do take credit cards as payment at the gate of Lakeside Pavilion. We each paid exactly $20 without any additional fees.

It's an extremely cool event and it is awesome to see Cedar Point doing stuff like this. Well worth the money.

^Thanks!

It's still a great deal even at $20, and yes you can pay with a credit card. They give you 15 tickets and, if you're over 21, a wristband. You can use 1 ticket for a 4 oz. beer sample, or 3 tickets for a 12 oz. cup. You can also use a ticket to try various food items, or 3 tickets for a full plate (you can't mix and match the plate combos, although now that I think about it, I guess you could just get single-ticket samples of whatever you want).

The ribs were good, although I didn't think the sauces were anything special (good but not great). Obviously the brews were the main focus, and that they provided in abundant variety. Awesome selection, and I discovered some new favorites. McKenzie's apple pie cider and Woodchuck's new P.T. Barnum in particular.

One annoyance was that my friend also had to pay $20 for each of his kids (teenagers), even though they can't drink. They had a ton of tickets leftover, most of which they gave to e x i t english, who graciously accepted. ;)

It was a great deal and a great event, and I hope they keep doing things like this!

For those who can't or don't drink, they should lower the price and the number of tickets.

Can you leave and come back later? I don't think I would want to drink all that beer in a short amount of time.

Did they get rid of the Brew and BBQ Season Pass ticket on the website, I cannot find it?
