In any outdoor event, whether it is a concert, sporting event, or festival, safety of the patrons is the number one priority. One strike of lightning or a strong gust of wind could have had a catastrophic impact on those attending the festival. The St. Louis Brewers Guild was disappointed that the decision to close had to be made, but made it with patron's safety in mind.
The St. Louis Brewers Guild would like to show its support to those who attended the St. Louis Brewers Heritage Festival and were negatively affected by the early termination of the event.
The St. Louis Brewers Guild in itself, is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, whose mission is to increase Beer Tourism in the City of St. Louis and surrounding areas. The St. Louis Brewers Heritage Festival was aimed to be a kick-start event to showcase and further build the Saint Louis area as a world-class destination for great beers, educating residents, visitors and the world on the passion, dedication and great beer Saint Louis has to offer.
In order to show our good faith, the St. Louis Brewers Guild is offering those who were affected by Saturday night's weather a special "Thank You for Coming to the St. Louis Brewers Heritage Festival". The St. Louis Brewers Guild will send customers who purchased tickets to and attended the festival on Saturday night a voucher good for two draft beers at the following locations listed below, along with a discount code good for 50% off a ticket to next year's St. Louis Brewers Heritage Festival.
An email is going out to those who purchased tickets in advance through the online ticketing system. Those who purchased tickets on-site are asked to send an email to [email protected] for further instructions.
We are disappointed that the Heritage Festival ended early due to poor weather, but are happy to have you as a consumer of St. Louis Beer. We thank you for continued support, and look forward to seeing you at future events.
