Richmond County Craft Beer Fest 2011
Staten Island, NY – Richmond County Craft Beer Fest (RCCBF) happens on October 22, 2011 at the Richmond County Bank Ballpark in St George, a meticulously kept stadium with a view of Manhattan and the New York City harbor as a backdrop.
RCCBF features craft breweries from the region and beyond. It partners with over two dozen top Staten Island food venues, fitted with a particular brew. Guests are treated to music by well known local bands and an up-close look at “Brewing as Art” a working steampunk sculpture by local home-brewer Mark Zappasodi and metal sculptor Scott Van Campen.
Food and drink are included in the admission price, although each venue will have edibles and items for sale as well. (We’ll supply a complimentary shopping bag!) Guests are welcome to picnic on the Richmond County Bank Ballpark itself.
Brewing something people should know about?
Since 2007, The Full Pint has been where craft beer fans get their news. Breweries and beer brands can reach them too.
