My friends and I attended CrushBrew and had a very nice evening. It wasn't super crowded, I'm sure due to the hefty ticket price. The 15 drink tickets lasted a decent amount of time, but some of the vendors were more generous than others. I avoided the wine booths because most of them used the measuring pour spouts so there was little room for getting a bonus amount. The beer vendors were the best for getting a decent sized sample of their beverage. The layout wasn't the best, it was one row of vendors along the river, so you would pass the same booths in both directions. This is good if you want to get another taste of something you'd already had, but not that great if you're trying to get all unique tastings. The weather was amazing and it was really nice to be outside after sunset. We all had fun in the free photobooth and found tons of swag. My biggest hangup was the price. I don't know that I would pay full price for what was there and what came with the cost of the ticket. I've done plenty of these types of festivals and this was the first that came with a plastic collectible cup. I don't mind the plastic for by the pool, but you know their cost was not as high glass. Parking was a bit of a hassle, but we managed to find as spot in the underground lot by Olive and Ivy (we arrived around 5).
