All 1500 available tickets usually sell out, showing an enthusiastic following in Southern Indiana for the Crusade and for the support of craft beer in Indiana. More than 100 craft beers will be available for sampling, and the Men’s Group of St. Anthony’s will provide food, with their proceeds going to support scholarships for local students.
The Keg Liquors Fest of Ale donated over $13,000 to the Crusade for Children in 2014, and hopes to reach at a minimum of $15,000 this year. New this year will be the 10th Anniversary Tapping of specialty ales of 10% ABV or higher or the brewery’s own Anniversary Ale.
