The latest on Winter Beerfest

As it most certainly did not take place over this past weekend as intended due to an unspecified problem with the Starlight Ballroom, Winter Beerfest has been postponed until Saturday, Feb. 12, confirms organizer Troy Timpel. There will still be two sessions, 1-5 p.m. and 6-10 p.m. Whether or not the festival will be held at the Starlight or at another venue altogether remains to be seen, but we should have an official answer on that by this evening. So what does this mean for those of you who've already bought (or won) tickets? Worry not, as tix from the original date will still be honored on the 12th. If you can no longer attend the festival on the rescheduled date, refunds are available, as well. For more up-to-date information and updates, keep an eye on the Winter Beerfest website. UPDATE [26jan11]: The Electric Factory (421 N. Seventh St.) is the new venue for the Feb. 12 Winter Beerfest, according to the fest's website.
