6th Annual
Autumn Suds-Fest
A beer tasting, food sampling event
 
September 18, 2010   Doors open at 6pm
 
People are still talking about Autumn Suds-Fest 2009! It was a huge success, and a lot of fun for staff, donors and attendees alike. If you missed it last year, don’t be left out again. Mark your calendars now for another exciting evening of music, food, drink and fun, all to benefit Berman Museum. We are delighted to have the returning support of Supreme Beverage Company, Inc; Bama Budweiser of Anniston, Inc and Alabama Crown Distributing Company. These fine companies will be supplying craft, gourmet, domestic and import beers, as well as the newly popular high gravity beers, for sampling. And an exciting new addition to the line-up this fall will be a representative from Back Forty Brewery who will talk about their beers and about their newest venture, a brewery just down the road in Gadsden. Last year the participating distributors graciously contributed some wonderful items for our donation raffle. There will be more great prizes this year, so come with cash in hand! Donation raffle tickets are one dollar each. Buy as many as you like.
 
Autumn Suds-Fest 2010 proudly welcomes back, by popular demand, the music of Sterling Silver Band. A huge hit with the diverse crowd we gathered in 2009, they really rocked the house. Their cool, classic sounds will appeal to all, no matter whether you’re 21 or 71. Doors open at 6pm. The band will begin their performance at6:30pm.
 
Adding a new dimension to this year’s event will be the addition of local restaurants who will offer a sampling of some of their finest appetizers, entrees and even some desserts.  Many restaurant owners will be on-hand for the evening to talk about their food and about the kinds of beers they offer. 
 
Think you’re left out because you’re not a beer drinker?  Think again! You can still be a part of all the fun, food, and fine music. Just ask for one of a variety of sodas provided by Supreme Beverage Company, Inc. Or try a cup of coffee or ask for a glass of water to complement the food sampling.
 
Included in your ticket price this year is a souvenir glow-in-the-dark tasting mug. When you check in you, simply redeem your ticket for a mug that you will be able to use to sample throughout the night. Take it home afterwards and use it to enjoy your own favorite brew year round.
