Damn the costs! The Return of the Belgian Beer Fest!
 
We've been considering scrapping our Belgian Beer Fest due to the high
beer costs involved; we spent roughly $30,000 on beer alone at last
year's BBF. And unfortunately we anticipate even more increases this
year; at least an extra $5,000 on beer alone.

This made us pause.

We even considered throwing a Euro Beer Fest, however, after further
research we discovered that this fest would probably be even more
expensive due to being importer heavy. Other fest ideas proved to be
too niche within the niche for the size of the venue, which brings
with it the risk of not selling enough tickets; but you never know, we
might find a smaller venue for these.

So once again we're saying damn the costs! If we're going to put our
heads (and credit line) on the proverbial chopping block, we're going
to do what we love and host The Return of the Belgian Beer Fest,
again! We're even bringing back Night of the Funk and upping the
overall quality of what shows up at the fest. We're also dropping the
ticket price for the Saturday back down to an approachable $40; I
know, we're insane.

Damn the costs!
