The Classic City Brew Fest is the southeast's largest and longest running indoor beer festival and will attract beer aficionados throughout the southeast who will enjoy sampling over 160 of the world's greatest beers on Saturday April 3, 2004 from 2:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Held in the grand exhibit hall of Athens' Classic Center, attendees will be able to experience over 30,000 square feet of beer. Brewers will be on hand to discuss beer styles with the public and over sixty brewing companies from twenty different countries will be presented. Proceeds will benefit the AIDS Coalition of Northeast Georgia (ACNG); the primary HIV/AIDS service organization in a ten county area of northeast Georgia. ACNG is a non-profit, community-based agency committed to meeting the needs of northeast Georgians affected by HIV/AIDS through direct client services, advocacy, education, free HIV testing and outreach programs. A portion of each ticket sale will benefit ACNG's education and outreach efforts. Last year's Classic City Brew Fest drew an energetic crowd of beer enthusiasts who came to taste, learn and appreciate the handcrafted ales and lagers of the world. This year tickets will again be limited to 2,400 to reduce crowding, so individuals are advised to purchase tickets early. Attendees at the 2004 festival can also enjoy food, non-alcoholic drinks and live entertainment from Athens' popular Artie Ball Swing Band. Great beer-related door prizes and exciting giveaways will be handed out throughout the day. People will roam from booth to booth, tasting samples of various beers and ciders—all for one ticket price! Brew Fest organizers stress the importance of attendees savoring the flavors of premium beers responsibly and information on responsible drinking
will also be available.Brew Fest will give attendees the opportunity to experience different styles of beer from around the world and the opportunity to appreciate different characteristics of each. "If you enjoy flavorful foods, why not drink flavorful beers?" says Brew Fests founder and director Owen Ogletree. "…experiment with different beer styles and try to find new favorites with flavor and personality." Like wine, today's handcrafted beers can be paired deliciously with gourmet foods. "There are more styles of beer in the world than wine. Beer has its own history, depth of character, and charm. Some Belgian beers taste just as complex and robust as many wines, and there are food and beer pairings that work better than wine. Open yourself up to the incredible world of beer styles from around the world—you will be impressed and amazed!" says Ogletree.
