I think I saw some info on here in the past- what are beer prices like at the festival? Great ($5 for a 16-oz craft), high ($7), or "wear a winter coat filled with my own beer" ($8+)?

Are prices different in the craft beer village as opposed to beer stands? Or is the craft beer village simply where the good beer is and not really a separate deal?

Prices have traditionally been high. Not Live Nation high but high. The craft beer village simply where the good beer is. Sorry I don't know if there was anything other than that.

one year they had cheap pale yellow beer and more expensive craft--a good choice to have.

Then they had only expensive craft, mostly Sierra whose craftiness is debatable, but nonetheless it was more flavorful than pale yellow. Ran about $6-8.

Can't speak to last year.

I've made more mistakes drinking cider than anything else. It's deceptively refreshing. Mead will just fuck you up.

I think that point is more commonly known as Saturday & Sunday.

In the swelter of last year it was a good sample but a really poor choice for long term functionality.

How was the beer this year, y'all? I recall L4 paying about $7 for a craft beer such as Graffiti House by Old busthead (or is it the other way around -- one is the brewer and one is the beer name)~

About $8. They had some 12 and 16 oz cans for different prices (nice to have cans IMO)and a good selection.
