The 2nd annual Top of the Hops Jackson Beer Festival will showcase the growing popularity of craft beers from around the country and the world in a relaxed and friendly environment. Patrons will receive a commemorative sampling mug and have access to unlimited, two-ounce sampling of over 150 craft beers in the Lazy Magnolia Beer and Blue Moon Beer Gardens. The festival will also feature the Sam Adams Brew University Education Area where patrons will enjoy beer seminars such as Cooking with Beer, Food Pairings, Brewing 101 and other beer education sessions.
Commenting on the partnership, Jay Wilson part of the marketing team for Red Mountain Entertainment said, Beer Universe presents a unique opportunity to enhance the experience of patrons at beer festivals. This is our first partnership with them, and we anticipate expanding the partnership in the future to the other beer festivals we manage.
Specifically, the Top of the Hops beer festival application powered by Beer Universe will allow users to view the list of breweries and beers at the festival, rate and take notes on beers, and see additional information about festival events. Patrons will be able to retrieve their ratings through the application as well as online through Beer Universe.
Arup Banerjee, CEO of Beer Universe, stated, Beer Universe is extremely excited to partner up with Red Mountain Entertainment and the Top of the Hops beer festivals. We believe that our application will bring additional value to the Top of the Hops beer festival and will enable patrons to engage with the beer they try long after the festival is done.
