Post Run Beer Tasting
The post run beer drinking is a festival all it's own. Beer City Half offers our runners over 21 years of age a selection of beer from a collection of our local brewer friends. There will also be non-alcoholic Hop Water as well as the water, bubbly drinks, and snacks we provide.
Beer will be served in 7oz Beer City tasting glasses for you to take home (without a beer in them still). Drink as much as you like until noon.
Also, there will be bubbly water and sodas, as well as snacks for everyone, including Bellwether Farms yogurt and fruit.
Swag & Awards
Each Beer City Half runner receives the special Key to Beer City, a comfy Beer City t-shirt, a 7oz Beer City tasting glass, custom bib, and free race photos.
Podium trophies are given to the top 3 in each race by gender. Age group awards are given 3-deep in 10-year divisions (example: 20-29). Age group winners are requested to identify themselves at the timing table.
All runners are entered into the Beer City Series results and our Slammers receive a special lanyard that holds all the keys. Collect them all -- gotta run first!
Race the Rex and The Beermazing Race have their own treats and rewards as well..
